Hi Peter,

If your version of SMSQ/E has the WIN_DRIVE command, you can use this command from SBASIC:

WIN_DRIVE drive_number,qxl_win_name

where drive_number would be a drive from 1 to 8 inclusive - sounds like you need drive 3

and qxl_win_name would be the DOS filename including drive and directory - either qxl.win (normally) or whatever else you called it (in this case QXL3_win)

So assuming the QXL3_win is on drive C:\ in Windows:
WIN_DRIVE 3,"c:\qxl3_win"

(the drive and filename needs to be in quotes because of the : and \ in the name)

To check what they are already set to use the function WIN_DRIVE$(drive_number), e.g. PRINT WIN_DRIVE$(3) will tell you what the third QXL>WIN slot is currently set to.

If your version of SBASIC doesn't support WIN_DRIVE you would need to set it in the configuration window for whichever emulator you are using. Manuals for QXL for example are on the Replacement Manuals page on my site - http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/docs/manuals/index.html - scroll down to Miracle Systems Manuals, QXL Manual.

You can find a manual for SBASIC at http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/docs/ebooks/index.html (scroll down to the SBASIC Manual section, there you will find a manual as PDF, eBook formats, or as an online HTML version.

If you wish, QPC2 emulator v4.04 and manual can now be downloaded free of charge from Marcel Kilgus's website at http://www.kilgus.net/qpc/ (just click on Downloads in the PAGES box on the right).
