There is a QuickBasic version of Numerical Recipes, authored by
Julius (Julian?) Sprott, and available from Cambridge University
Press.  This includes the example book, for about $35, and the disk
with the software, for about $35.  The text that accompanies the
softwares can be had from the Fortran/C editions of the textbook;
there is no Basic version of it.  Virtually all of the most common
matrix operations are facilitated by this software, as well as
several statistical operations.  In addition, you will have signal
analysis, differential equation solution, special functions,
eigensystem analysis, and some other stuff I can't think of off the
top of my head.

BTW, this software is a translation of the older, Ver. 1 Numerical
Recipes, and not the just published 2nd Edition.  No doubt the
QuickBasic stuff will be in the stores within a year or two.

cheers,
