Hello All,
This is my first post, sorry for any bad English.

I'm trying to compile & run Mini Basic interpreter.
I've download MASM32 version 7 package. Program compiles without errors but when i run the executable it displays a message box saying Api Error.
I have Windows XP sp3.

I would really appreciate any kind of help.

P.S I know very few about MASM, run other Assembler untill now.

It actually does work, try "minibas load pitman.mbi"

Unfortunately it refuses to run Api Error again.
I noticed now that my executable is 11 kb but the original inside zip is 20 !
Thanks for the reply hutch--

On these older projects, many of them had a make file in the project, that would take care of the conditional libraries or object files.

So run that instead of the BuildAll.bat from the Qeditor Menus prompts.

Hi P1, there is no such file insize only the minibas.asm
I download and install version 10 hutch--  btw it looks quite impressive package.
Still Api Error again when i run it, same size.
My steps are -> install the package, run quick editor, open the file and clicked on Assemble Asm File.
Also tried all other options.
Anyone having the same problem?
Thanks for the feedback guys.

Yes. The binary's date is 01/2001, the date of the source is 02/2002, so it's not that surprising.

There is an improved MiniBasic from Hitchhiker, which has a valid source:
