I want to be able to write a qbasic program and then give it to a few friends so they can run it too. How do I do this? When I save it, it is saved as a .bas which I can edit and so forth, but I cant run it. How do I make a file I can execute?
thanks,

You can't. QBASIC is an interpreter not a compiler. Your friends must have copies of it to run any programs you make with it. You could try using Visual BASIC to compile your program into an executable. Whether it works depends on how generic your program is.
 
I talked to a friend at school and he said to use something called Quick Basic, and I found something similar on the web and it will make a qbasic program into an exe, incase anyone is interested.
