I've got QBASIC on my XP.
I"m just learning for the sake of learning;
I do have an ulterior motive; I'd like to be able to take my poker
hand histories (poker sites provide a hand history) and see if I can
do more than I'm currently doing with EXCEL.
Unless I'm painting myself in a corner, do you see any reason I
shouldn't simply work with what I"ve got? - MIke
