The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft BASIC Compiler for MS-DOS and OS/2 6.0b
- Microsoft QuickBASIC 4.0
- Microsoft QuickBASIC 4.0b
This article was previously published under Q44797 SUMMARY
When creating a Quick library using the MOUSE.LIB library (from the
"Microsoft Mouse Programmer's Reference Guide") for use with
QuickBasic 4.00 or 4.00b or Basic compiler 6.00 or 6.00b, you must
place another object module or library before MOUSE.LIB in the Quick
library. This can be accomplished using any other object module or
library and the following LINK syntax:
LINK /Q otherlib+MOUSE.LIB, MOUSE.QLB,, BQLB40.LIB
If MOUSE.LIB is the first (or only) element in the Quick library,
trying to load the Quick library into QuickBasic 4.00 or 4.00b or
Basic compiler 6.00 or 6.00b (with QB /L Mouse.QLB) results in an
"Error loading file - invalid format" error message. This problem does
not occur in QuickBasic 4.50 or Basic PDS 7.00.
