Hi! I am a new registered user, and wish to program a couple of very simple programs (they're so simple you can do it in Microsoft Excell, but it don't look very professional!). I used to program a little Amos on the Amiga years ago... but, I don't know whether I have missed it, but I can't find any "beginners tutorials" for pure basic anywhere. I would just like a few simple projects with step by step instructions and explanations (setting up windows, buttons, getting the user to input a number ad then perform a calculation at the click of a button), but can;t find any. Anyone know of any tutorials anywhere I could d/l? Thanks :) You can email me at [url]mailto:q@qlab.swintenret.co.uk[/url] if you want. Thanks for your help!

Hi willinyork,

PureBasic isn't really a beginner's BASIC (it lacks a lot of commands, but you can use the API to make up for them). But to answer your question: Load the Gadgets.pb example project that comes with PureBasic -- it shows how to set up a window with a range of different gadgets and how to interact with them.
