New submission from James:
Hello,
I really think that Microsoft’s last release of Quick Basic 4.5 really had
the ultimate of all help files. Here’s why, you could cut and copy the code to
the program you were working on, and then alter it to your program. It was one
of the nicer things you could do with the help file. Because, tearing down the
working example, usually just means customizing it to your needs, or wants.
You have several randomizing routines right? How do you use these modules?
I have to say, looking at the help, should work for anyone that can’t leave it
alone and learn to program if that’s what they want to do. I was always a hunt
an pick programmer. I rather read through the help files and see what it can
do, and then figure out what I want to do. There’s no reason anyone couldn’t
be self taught via reading the help file but, we should at least want it to
work that way.
It’s fun to be on a ship with men.
James.
