QB.EXE 4.x Doesn't Save Screen Settings on Hercules Adapter (39248)
This article was previously published under Q39248
SYMPTOMS
Changes made to the QB.EXE Versions 4.00, 4.00b, or 4.50 environment
are not saved if a Hercules or compatible adapter is used. After
changing the editor color options and exiting the environment,
QuickBasic always restarts with the default-color attributes. The
QB.INI file is not correctly updated. Display attributes must be
reselected every time QuickBasic is started.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Microsoft QuickBasic
Versions 4.00, 4.00b, and 4.50, and in the QB.EXE environment that
comes with Microsoft Basic Compiler Versions 6.00 and 6.00b for MS-DOS
(buglist6.00, buglist6.00b). This problem was corrected in the QBX.EXE
(QuickBasic Extended) environment that comes with Microsoft Basic
Professional Development System (PDS) Version 7.00 (fixlist7.00).
