It's hard to imagine *why* you would want to, but according to this you can:

However, consider Visual Basic instead. After all, there is a free version
of Visual Studio (Visual Studio Express) for Visual Basic:

Have fun!

If you are taking a course using qbasic, ask the instructor WHY!

Probably the same reason I had to take a course recently on the 8085
processor assembly language. When you learn to spell, you don't start with
whole words, you start with one letter. Once you understand the background,
the more complex structures are easier to fathom.

On the other hand, you don't start with the Sanskrit alphabet.

I recently downloaded Qbasic71.zip which I swear was from Microsoft (maybe
the MSDN site) but can't find it now.

Works fine on W2003 so if you can't get something to work I will try and
find the download again - could u email me putting [personal] including the
brackets in the subject line... just use email address from here to remind
me.
