-
- This official Spectra release explains Print Using and one difference in it
- from TB to PB. The bug is not in PB, but was in PB. Since you may have a
- workaround in TB, you may think PB is at fault. This also has a correction
- to the Reference Guide that is not covered in the ReadMe file on your
- PowerBASIC master disk.

- Keywords:
- TOOLBOX TB TO PB DATABASE FIX PATCH
-
- Here are the changes that need to be made to the database toolbox files so
- that you may compile and run under PowerBASIC. There are five "blocks" of
- changes that need to be made. The assembly routines that are commented in
- changes 2 and 4 need not be written into your code, but we suggest that you
- do so for future reference. Please call me if you have any questions or
- comments. Good programming!

- Title : PBPATCH.EXE to install fixes and enhancements
- Keywords: PATCH MEMORY CVF CBCD REMOVE REPLACE FN FUNCTION
-
- This file contains PBPATCH.EXE, to allow you to install modifications, bug
- fixes, and enhancements to PowerBASIC. This patch corrects problems with
- premature "out of memory" errors, CVF/CBCD/REMOVE$/REPLACE, public
- references from chained programs, single precision functions/fn's, and
- other fixes and enhancements. It should be implemented by all users of
- PowerBASIC #2.00b, and is also available on disk from Spectra Tech Support.

-
- PowerBASIC 2.x does not have View Print command for Text modes as yet. Is

- Title : Exists, Findfile and see how to access strings.
- Keywords:
- STRINGSEGMENT STRINGPOINTER STRSEG STRPTR STRINGS
-
-
- This example includes the source code for a PBU file, and a demo with full
- remarks. Shown is how to access the new strings in PowerBASIC. These new
- ways are necessary because of the unlimited string space in PowerBASIC (no
- more 64k limit).
- Also shown is how this was accomplished in Turbo Basic.
- The demo, DemoEx.Bas (or DemoEx.EXE to see it run if you don't have
- PowerBASIC) is a simple sample to show how to access the unit.
