 JT> 1.0, an upgrade from Turbo Basic of Borland.....
 SL> You have been away for a while ;-) PB version 3.2 is the current
     6 years exactly.... and in this domain, it's an eternity....
 SL> version. As a former TB user I can attest that 3.2 is a big step

 SL> If you have web access you can get all the gory details at
 SL> "www.powerbasic.com". Amongst other things you will find there a
 SL> "test drive" version of 3.2 (fully functional except you can't
 SL> save source code) and a relatively new offering called
 SL> "FirstBASIC" which is shareware, available for download at the
 SL> site, and a somewhat repackaged PB version 2.x.
 SL> Check it out! 3.2 even has pointers like C ;-) We've come a long
 SL> way from 2 character variable names ;-)
     I'll give it a try as soon as possible, my experience with
     Power Basic along with Windows PB, not the windoze thing, the
     window maker by ASP, has been a pleasure......
     Thanks for the info's and salutations from Montreal....
