Re: Archive auto Primary Keys?

The Quanta archives hold some family tree programs running in Archive. There was also a version published in the QL-World exchange series. Several _dbf's were linked together. For that each person is identified by a unique number that is generated automatically in field one when a new individual is ...

Re: QXL Board - Software

What software was provided with the QXL board? Was it just the original SMSQ or was there any support software? A customer has a QXL board, but not any of the supporting disks so I was wondering what I need to send him? Below is a copy from the disk that came with my QXL2 in '96. This SMSQ 2.76 did...

Re: Close, but no cigar..

... The fact I am seeing some sort of message on the screen and a stable video (even if it has garbage on it) suggests the main video circuit is good and it's booted as far as the SGC ROM to get that message - which I presume is "Rom version not found contact miracle systems" Case is a Pa...

Re: sQLux v1.0 (The Xmas Turkey)

It should be sufficient to create a new file from SuperBASIC, and then try to OPEN_OVER from SuperBASIC: OPEN_OVER is a TK2 command and thus not standard available in Minerva. However according to the Minerva manual an _OVER action can be created by a third parameter (page 21 of my copy). : OPEN ch...

Re: Minerva4Q68 SD Card Setup

Looks like I'm running out of options :(. With this ROM my Q68 didn't crash when moving the mouse. I haven't considered the serial interrupts yet, but I can hardly imagine that not doing anything with the serial port can leave these interrupts enabled. I'm curious about experiences from other Q68 u...

Re: Qlib v3.45 error under QDOS

The only QDOS setup I have here to test is QemuLator with JS ROM. A very quick test with this shows that Q_ERR_ON seems to work on that system at least, both interpreted and compiled: Obviously, it's only a quick test on a QDOS emulator, not a real BBQL. My compiled test was done on a BBQL with SGC...

Re: Qlib v3.45 error under QDOS

In QLIB 3.45 the Q_ERR_ON/OFF keywords are now in an extensions file called QERR_bin, linked in with $$asmb=win1_QERR_bin,0,10 in case that's the issue you're having. OK. thanks. Oops, I never noticed the Q_ERR commands had jumped bins. So I compiled a new built with the correct _bin. The _obj stil...

Qlib v3.45 error under QDOS

I compiled a new version of BMP with the latest Qlib v3.45 on QPC2v5 with SMSQ/E v3.38. As it was also meant to run under QDOS I did some tests there and ran into a problem. The Q_ERR_ON keyword produced a "bad name" error, even when the loaded Qlib_run was also the latest version. Testing...
