PUT Statement Correction, Page 342 QB Language Reference (40886)
This article was previously published under Q40886
SUMMARY
Page 342 of the "Microsoft QuickBasic: Basic Language Reference"
manual for Versions 4.00 and 4.00b and the "Microsoft Basic 6.0
Compiler: Basic Language Reference" manual for Versions 6.00 and
6.00b, ("PUT Statement - File I/O") incorrectly states the following:
...characters in the string's value. For example,
the following two statements write 15 bytes to file
number 1:
VarString$=STRING$ (15, "X")
GET #1,,VarString$
The GET should be changed to PUT as follows:
VarString$=STRING$ (15, "X")
PUT #1,,VarString$
This documentation error was corrected in the QuickBasic Version 4.50
QB Advisor on-line Help system and in the "Microsoft QuickBasic 4.5:
Basic Language Reference" manual for Version 4.50 and in the
"Microsoft Basic 7.0: Language Reference" manual for Microsoft Basic
PDS Version 7.00 for MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
