    How do you use disk files in pc-basic? I attempted to use lthis gw-basic statement- " Open "F:k.dat" for output as #2 ", and get a " path not found " error.

      Have you read „Accessing your drives“ in the documentation?

      Especially the hint: „Windows uses [sic!] should note that they are not the same locations as Windows drive letters: the device C: on PC-BASIC is not your Windows C: drive, unless you explicitly tell PC-BASIC to make it so.“

        Thanks- I found the configuration files and changed one line ( map_drives=true ), and removed the #sign, and the formerly non-working code worked. Thanks again!
