Tutorial?

by Faust (no login)

Hi everyone, I'm new here, and new to QBasic, too.

We had the option to do Computer Studie in school, but I didn't take it as I was never really interested in it.

Now, I've just gotten into DOS/QBASIC and I'm really keen to learn.

I've managed to get DOS under control, but I'd like to learn QBasic.

Can anyone offer any good tutorials?

I have Windows XP and a Windows 2000.

I run QB through DOS 5.1, if that helps.

Thanks in advance,

Faust.
