>        Is there a discount on QBX 7.1 that Visual Basic owners can get?
 
The information I received last Spring said the offer was for a limited time
(QuickBasic owners upgradedable to PDS 7.1).  More than anything I think it
was a bone being thrown to QuickBasic owners to keep us loyal and move along
the path to Visual Basic and to spite Spectra Publishing. (Purely an opinion
and not supported by proof since I do not work for Microsoft.)
 
You might try toll-free directory assistance and ask for Microsoft End Users
Sales and Service as I believe that is where the offer originated.
