The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY

Compiled Basic modules that are placed into a Quick library must be compiled with the same version of BC.EXE that was shipped with the QB.EXE in use.

For example, Basic code placed into a Quick library that will be used with QuickBasic Version 4.50 must be compiled with the BC.EXE shipped with Version 4.50. Prior versions of BC.EXE, such as the version shipped with Microsoft Basic Compiler Versions 6.00 or 6.00b, are not necessarily compatible with QuickBasic Version 4.50.

This information applies to the QB.EXE environment of QuickBasic Versions 4.00, 4.00b, and 4.50, to the QB.EXE environment of Microsoft Basic Compiler Versions 6.00 and 6.00b, and to the QBX.EXE environment of the Microsoft Basic PDS Version 7.00.
