    You're probably thinking of BASIC or QBASIC

    No, there actually was a VB for DOS. I used it a few times in the early '90s. I remember being very impressed with it at the time...

    Oh yea that was later on. BASIC was back in the late 70's / early 80's.

    I hadnt watched the vide but when I did it was terrible quality and played intermittently. Booo!

    Re: Windows 1.0

    I seem to remember the DOS version being a slightly prettier version of QBasic . The BASIC language has been around since the 60's. BBC BASIC > VB6
    PHP || MySql || Apache || Get Firefox || OpenOffice.org || Click || Slap ILMV || 1337 c0d || GotoMyPc For FREE! Part 1, Part 2

    | PHP Session --> Database Handler * Custom Error Handler * Installing PHP * HTML Form Handler * PHP 5 OOP * Using XML * Ajax * Xslt | VB6 Winsock - HTTP POST / GET * Winsock - HTTP File Upload

    Latest quote: crptcblade - VB6 executables can't be decompiled, only disassembled. And the disassembled code is even less useful than I am.

    Sad part is I have to user a powerbook G4 at work
    Worst OS ever.

    My Mac has crashed on me more times than a Windows XP machine. Granted it was only a handful, thats still more than Windows.

    QBASIC was "THE IT" back in the days. I think the very first piece of programming I ever did was in QBASIC. (Besides the ol' DOS Batch files I used to make for copying files... )

    Re: Windows 1.0

    I got my first job by programming a roulette game in VB 1.0 for DOS. I had no idea what I was doing but it was enough to get me the job.
    Rate my response if I helped
