This is probably another stupid question, but where did the list of ASCII codes, that BB used to store within, go to?

All that remains are the scan codes, and the scan code table.

Have you tried... https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=ascii+chart

Not sure what the question is, but you can use the ascii codes in combination with CHR$, and GetKey() returns the ascii value as well.

That's what I meant. It used to be in the application. -=-=- DNA |

Hmm, maybe its not in the newer versions ... i still have the old and it is located in the Command Refference as ascii.htm which i have uploaded as text file, in case you want to insert it there. ascii_htm_txt Here is the location of the file:

That link is only a hypertext link, not a .txt What is the latest version that includes this feature built into the application? -=-=- DNA |

Personally I prefer things like that to NOT be part of the Blitz app. I always hated having to flick through the tabs of the GUI, even with Ctrl+Tab, because I've usually got at least 3 or 4 tabs of code open.. A quick Alt+Tab between my code and the browser were always much easier to do. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

I wrote an Application that puts the set, from 1 to 127, on the screen. Why was the list removed from the compiler? -=-=- DNA |

Probably because people found the Asc("i") function did the job just fine. Like how you *could* use a calculator to figure out 32*67, or you could just write (32*67) in your code and be done with it. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

That link is only a hypertext link, not a .txt What i have done is this: i found out where the blitzbasic documentation points to it's ascii file. I have copied the ascii.htm to my ram drive, renamed it as ascii_htm.txt and uploaded it to socoder. If you look (not at the thumbnail, its from the previous upload where i have drawn the arrow on the scancode instead of ascii code) at the second arrow, you will see that it is pointing to the ascii chart. The ascii.htm is exactly that file, which is shown on the rightmost side of the screenshot. Obviously i thought that, if you are missing that part in your blitzbasic documentation, you could just copy the file there, rename it as ascii.htm and edit the command_list.htm, where you could insert a hyperlink pointing to it.
