If you ever intend for compatibility with quickbasic binary compressed .bas files (which were the default when you saved in quickbasic) this link might be useful:

If anyone can find a program to translate qb compressed basic files to qb text basic files I'd be glad know about it and where to find it.

There is one program that I found, but it is very old and works only under DOS, unfortunately it isn't documented either, it's called rb58 and can be downloaded here: http://www.simtel.net/product.php?id=40530


Also; good luck at getting the forums to work again.
