We need to run the Microsoft MBASIC compiler BASCOM. I have the program (I am still looking for LINK, but I think the SLR linker will do), but I cannot locate a manual and do not know the syntax to use. Can anyone help with a quick rundown on the syntax and/or a reference to a published book or article on the subject. Thanks. This need, by the way, arose in my capacity as a Boston Computer Society trouble-shooter. Someone's accounting package, written in Microsoft BASIC, suddenly stopped working properly. The user has the source code and, upon examining it, discovered an error in some date processing steps. Everything was fine until this month. He thinks he has the fix but must now recompile the code. -- Jay Sage, SAGE @ LL.LL.MIT.EDU, 617-981-4704
