Can anyone tell me how variables are stored in Microsoft compiled Basic ?? I have about 8Mb of database to read and convert to another form... The original database was created by a suite of basic programs on an Apricot using DOS/BIOS 2.11. I don't have access to the original sources. I think I have identified most of the data fields, but there's some dates in it somewhere that may be stored as long ints or floats or something...
