Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

The format of the number does not correspond to the number
format expected by QuickBASIC.
 
You have probably made a typographical error. For example,
the number 2p3 produces this error.
 
To see the valid formats, use the QB Advisor help system.
Choose the Help menu's Contents command, then choose the
hyperlink to the Data Types topic.
