Can anyone recommend a good book on Microsoft BASIC that covers the functions included in version 2? For example, functions window and button. Thanks a lot (on behalf of my Macintosh-owning sister). send replies to (allegra,ihnp4)!cmcl2!acf4!gausewit

I saw it in the WaldenBooks in Lexington last week, and it looks both comprehensive and exhaustive. The pages aren't consecutively numbered (I think they were numbered by chapters), but it felt like 300-400 pages. It was priced at $24.95. I'm waiting to see how good the Microsoft documentation with Basic 2.0 is before I invest in a copy of the book. -- Ephraim Vishniac [apollo, bbncca, cadmus, decvax, harvard, linus, masscomp]!wanginst!vishniac vishniac%Wang-Inst@Csnet-Relay
