WHEREIS.BAS Correction in "4.5: Programming in Basic" Manual (59130)






This article was previously published under Q59130

SUMMARY

The following statement in the program example WHEREIS.BAS on Page 78 of the "Microsoft QuickBasic 4.5: Programming in Basic" manual for Version 4.50 is incorrect. The last line on the page incorrectly states the following:
   OPEN TempSpec$ FOR INPUT AS #FileNu
				
This statement should be corrected as follows:
   OPEN TempSpec$ FOR INPUT AS #FileNum
				
The WHEREIS.BAS example program is also included in the \EXAMPLES subdirectory on the "Setup/Microsoft QB Express" disk for QuickBasic Version 4.50. The example provided on disk does not contain the error and executes properly in the QB.EXE environment or as an .EXE program.

This documentation error has been corrected in the manuals for Microsoft Basic Professional Development System 7.00 for MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
