HERE'S A TOUGH ONE: I AM TRYING TO TRANSFER MY QBASIC (MS
DOS) FOLDER FROM MY OLD COMPUTER (WINDOWS ME) TO MY NEW
COMPUTER (WINDOWS XP). WHEN I TRY TO OPEN ANY FILE IN THE
FOLDER IT WON'T OPEN BECAUSE IT DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THE
FILE EXTENSION (.BAS)THE CHOICES OFFERED TO "OPEN WITH"
DON'T ALLOW ME TO RUN THE FILES IN THIS FOLDER? PLEASE
ADVISE.

it's not tough....just re-load the backup copy you made of the files in that
folder...you did make backups......

You have and use Qbasic files, but are not smart enough
to know that you also need the Qbasic application in order
to run them?
