PureBasic Forums - English

Thank you very much Kyle,

I bought your book moths ago, which was more than worth ... and I not only was impressed by your knowledge, but also of your clear expression. I think, no translation in another language could be better.

Thank you,

where do I have to place this code - in whicht section of what file? I can see that VD creates 2 files, but how can I make an EXE of those files?

I am an absolute beginner with Visual Designer and do not have much experience with PB so far. I started my first project:

Hi everybody,
is there a manual or so which teachs a beginner how to work with the visual designer. The help.chm so far ist not suitable because it does not contain very much information.
Thank you very much.

By the way: In my PB v4.10 copy there is Visual Designer v3.95 build 1485 included - not an alpha version of v4. And v3.95 came without a help file.

I have the same problem: I just bought/downloaded PB v4.10 and there is NO help file for the visual designer. I reported that to the support by mail.

Thanks a lot.

How can I display a floating variable (with decimales?):

zahl.f = Val(InputRequester("Input number: ", "Input number: ", ""))
MessageRequester("The number is: ", Str(zahl))

If I input e.g. 3.14 (or 3,14) the result is 3. But it should be 3.14 (or 3.14). Why does PB returns an integer?

Thanks ...

Beginner's question: How can I inbound a DLL in an executable? Does the DLL have to be in the same directory as the .pb file when compiling it? Or does purebasic know automatically where the DLL files are?
Thank you - Roland.

Thank you very much,
that was exactly what I wanted to know.

INPUT number1
INPUT number2
x = number1 + number2
PRINT ...
