Samm #2 / 6	QBASIC question PRINT USING ' The apostrophe (') character causes only the first character of the string to be printed. \ \ A pair of backslashes may enclose n number of spaces. Ths prints n + 2 characters from a string. Zero spaces allow 2 characters. If the string is longer than the field, the extra characters are ignored. If the field is longer than the string, the string is left-justified and padded with spaces on the right. & The ampersand signifies a variable- length fied. The string is printed without modification. + The plus sign ( +) causes the sign of a number(plus or minus) to be printed before or after the number as specified. Note: these are some of the PRINT USING CHARACTERS used in QB. there are a few others. hope this helps SammyD=QBNewbie Quote: > Hi, > What is the line continuation character in QuickBASIC? > I have a long PRINT statement.

Sidney L #3 / 6	QBASIC question Quote: >What is the line continuation character in QuickBASIC? I don't work in QBASIC but for most BASIC's I have worked in (excepting VB 3.0 which didn't have this capability) the continuation is indicated by placing a " _" at the end of the line being continued. That's "space underscore" and most of them are picky about demanding the "space" ;-)

I know in C it is \ The underscore character _ is the line continuation character in QB and it works in PDS and QBASIC (at least for me it does). - Robert * OLX 2.1 TD * "Nobody told me there'd be days like these!"
