Resurrecting QB45 app - Syntax Error

  #1  
Jul 15th, 2005
I confess that I'm very very rusty with this. Years ago I programmed a QB45 app for a client, and have never done anything since. Today we found a bug and I've found it in the source but I can't get the (unchanged) code to start in QB45 under XP; I get "Syntax Error" when I do Alt-R-Restart. (I had "out of memory" errors but other msgs on this wonderful forum got me past that.)

The Syntax Error msg arises right near the start of my .BI file:

DEFINT A-Z

TYPE lineparams
ID AS STRING * 2
Ft AS INTEGER
St AS INTEGER
Sz AS SINGLE
EC AS INTEGER
SW AS SINGLE
CS AS INTEGER
WS AS INTEGER
CD AS INTEGER
On AS INTEGER

I know such errors can be misleading - could be caused by all kinds of other things, which lead later to the error that I actually see.

I'm so rusty, I'll even list some primitive things in case I'm overlooking something trivial:
--5 .BAS files
--a .BI and .MAK file (the .MAK is what I'm opening in the UI)
--total 256,438 bytes

What can I do? Thanks in advance -
Dave
