This topic isn't really intended for people to ask questions in. As mentioned:
That all said, however, there are doubtless some features and procedures that aren't readily apparent on reading through the basic FAQ sections of the forum. So I'll invite experienced forum members to post short 'Guides' to using some of the more obscure (or not so obscure) facets of forum use.

But it can be difficult for newcomers to work out where to place their question on a site which covers such a wide range of topics. Taking the time to explorer the menu system and have a look at the range of categories available is worthwhile. Quite a few sections are 'nested' and don't appear on the main menu.

In raleman's instance, the correct section would be found by digging down through the 'Software Development' section. One of the options below that is 'Legacy and other languages', and below that there is a section for 'BASIC and QBASIC'.

Bingo!

If it's not apparent to you where to place your question after browsing through the various levels of the menu system here, you can feel free to ask for assistance in the 'Introductions' section of 'Coffee House'. That's part of the reason we have that section
