Plasma Sun Jul 17 2005 at 8:28 pm there are two versions of ffix
There's a TSR version, which you can use with any compiled program, and a library version, which you must explicitly link and call with your program. The TSR is easier to use, but the library is a cleaner approach if it's your own program or you can modify the source code.
To use the TSR, run FFIX.COM and then run your compiled program. If you're doing this in Windows, you'll need to either make a batch file or run the programs in the same dos box in order for the TSR to take effect.
To use the library, either load FFIX.QLB when starting the IDE (QB /L FFIX.QLB) or link with FFIX.LIB when compiling. Then just call the "ffix" sub at the beginning of your program. TEST.BAS is an example of how to use the library version of FFIX. (Remember, when you are using the library version, you don't have to load FFIX.COM.)
