ADDRESS MANAGER

I needed an Address Manager for my PC and I decided to obtain or produce one written in Liberty Basic. After searching LB, LBB and JB, I finally found one in the JB Archives written by jabas http://jbfilesarchive.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1501 . It is not as complicated as some that I looke...

Re: Liberty Basic 5

I thought that was the case, but I've been brought up to ask the stupid question.

LB5 looks as if it has promise, but it has still some way to go and the GUI output is still very basic.

Liberty Basic 5

I notice that Carl Gundel is developing Liberty Basic 5. Is there any interest from Richard in making LBB compatible?

Look at the OLD LBB Forum

Has anyone looked at the old LBB Conforums Forum recently. I've not looked at it for ages and I decided to have a look today. I'd forgotten just how much good stuff there is in there. It's well worth a look. There are some very good discussions and lots of example code with associated explanations; ...

Re: Formatting Numeric Input

We seem to have sorted out how to input numeric values into a single textbox with a validity check on each character as it is entered. So my next step is to enable this in a grid of textboxes. I had previously a solution that partially worked (it did not include entering a "0" before a dec...

Re: Formatting Numeric Input

tsh73 Thank you for your help with the modification of the code to make it work. I must say it's a nice bit of code now and having seen the lines and lines of code elsewhere to produce the same or equivalent, it is very concise and saves a lot of error checking. All that it doesn't do is deal with a...

Re: Formatting Numeric Input

@Alincon
No. _ES_NUMBER only allows the entry of characters 0 to 9. It does not permit minus or a decimal point.

However, if all you want to enter is characters 0 to 9 then it is fine and obviously saves a lot of code.

Re: Formatting Numeric Input

I've resolved the "-." issue and I've added a larger font to make the display clearer. Just the zero(s) after the decimal point if the last character is "." '============================================== ' Numeric entry into a textbox. ' This permits the entry of numbers includi...

Re: Formatting Numeric Input

I've tried to resolve the display of -.123 to be -0.123 using the changes to the function num$(d$) as below, but it displays -00.123. How can this be resolved? function num$(d$) t = 0 for i=1 to len(d$) a=asc(mid$(d$,i,1)) if a = 46 then t = t + 1 if (a = 46) and (t > 1) then a = 0 'only DOT after F...
