Roy, I have Chas Dillon's source files for Xref v3.11(assuming it's the same program as XREF-200) so that someone with knowledge of Turbo could probably take a look at what's happening perhaps. Chas kindly released the sources some time ago. At the very least someone might be able to recompile it with an up to date Turbo and Turbo Toolkit to see if that helps or not. I just had a very quick look at the sources of Xreff311.bas and it seems well written and follow-able if someone fancies a go.
Programs like this tend to directly or indirectly access name tables etc, using Turbo Toolkit extensions which have since been updated to work more reliably on modern systems. My own Basic Reporter (vaguely similar kind of program) is also in need of such an update :-( -- Dilwyn Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roy wood" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, September 24, 2006 11:11 AM Subject: Re: [ql-users] QPC2 and PDQ XREF200 > Hi, > I have no idea about this but a lot of earlier programs took > unmentionable liberties with the holes in the original code.
