QB64 Discussion / Re: lining up numbers in columns
« on: April 01, 2019, 09:33:27 am »
Thank you SMcNeil, bplus and Pete. I was able to use the code that Pete gave the best for my situation. I moved the columns a little wider and everyone lined up perfect.  You said you could explain how the code works and I would appreciate knowing this as I have learned to code all by myself through trial and error, lots of errors. Thanks again to all

I am not very good at explaining my problem. When I run the code I might get 7 3 5 4
                                                                                                                   1 8 12 6
The 12 moved the 6 to the right of the column with the 4.
The 1 lines up under the 7 and the8 lines up under the 3
Here is the code

CLS
LOCATE 20, 15
PRINT
PRINT TAB(14); "        OFX,ETX,STX,FFX,   BTIME,BTIMEA"
FOR TTP = 1 TO 8
    PRINT TAB(15); "DOG"; TTP; "-"; OFX(TTP); " "; ETX(TTP); " "; STX(TTP); " "; FFX(TTP); "     "; BTIMEA%(TTP); " "; BTIMEA(TTP)
NEXT TTP
PRINT " "
PRINT TAB(5); "                  OP, EP, SP, FP,  PTOTAL"
FOR TTP = 1 TO 8

    PRINT TAB(15); "DOG"; TTP; " "; OPOINT(TTP); " "; EPOINT(TTP); " "; SPOINT(TTP); " "; FPOINT(TTP); "       "; POINTTOTALA(TTP)
NEXT TTP
INPUT H

QB64 Discussion / lining up numbers in columns

Got a small problem. I have a for next routine that prints numbers 5 columns wide and 8 rows down. When it prints out, if one of the numbers is 2 digits, it moves the rest of the numbers on that row off line with the other numbers in that column. I remember several years ago I fixed this problem but I don’t remember how I did it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks again. I was highlighting the line but was not highlighting the code. Now everything is fine.

Thank you guys for the help. I have been walking around this program and have found I can not cut and paste, or print out the program. I find it easier to find problems if I have the code in my hand instead of the screen. I will probably figure these things out but that is where I am now. Thanks again.

Thank you very much for helping me get this on my computer. I started working on a program back when I had a commodore 64. I've written this program in GW Basic, QBasic and QuickBasic. Hard to believe where we have come since 170K hard drives! Anyway, thanks again. You have brought a little joy to an ole man.

First I want to thank all of you for the help. I am an old man and between chasing grandkids and trying to feed the family I haven't had a lot of time to play with the computer but here is what I have done. I downloaded 7Z and qb64. Then I couldn't figure out how to get qb64 file into the 7T unzipper. I use to use winzip and it was a little more friendly to use. When ever I got qb64 file it kept asking me to select one or more files but it doesn't work. Anyway, that's where I am right now. Thanks again

I have been downloading QB45 programs but can't get it to open and run. I open the file explorer install the program on my C drive but when I try to open the program I get an error message that it can't run the program. Help please.
