    HA! it dosen't get any richer than that.

    i really don't think there is a converter around, so you would have to go through and redo the code yourself. where qbasic is dos, and visualbasic is windows, there is no point.

    thank you for your time, concern, and money.

    i don't even see why you need a converter. All of the code is completely different, that i think it would be impossible to convert. How are you gonna get QB code to interact with forms, etc? If you want to convert some algorithms or something over, well that should take little or no editing to convert...

    QBASIC is used for DOS programming - not windows

    Even it has similar syntax, but still it is impossible to convert from qb to vb
    Baaaaaaaaah

    no its not... technically you can make a command line VB app, and since the coding is all the same you could just run your qb code inside the command line.

    BTW y the hell would you do this anyway??
