SUMMARY

The discussion revolves around obtaining the MatrixVB.dll library for Visual Basic, which is a commercial product from MathWorks. Users express difficulty in locating a free download for this math library, while also seeking ways to run old GWBASIC programs on Windows XP. The conversation highlights the availability of the Command Prompt in Windows for executing legacy software, with specific instructions on accessing it through the Start menu or the Run dialog. However, the thread is ultimately closed due to the illegal nature of seeking pirated software.

Not meant to hijack this thread!

I have some old programs I wrote in GWBASIC. I no longer own the computer that had an old version of Windows on it that could emulate DOS and run the programs. Is there some sneaky way to get a Windows XP computer into a C:> prompt such that I could execute good old fashioned GWBASIC?

Okay, so I'm too cheap to upgrade to Visual Basic. :rolleyes:

I don't know about a sneaky way, there is however a very straight forward way. Command prompt is on the start menu and last time I checked it will still run the old DOS Qbasic (I haven't tried gwbasic however).
 
Call me STUPID & IGNORANT if you care to.

Do you literally mean I should be looking for the words "Command prompt"? Under Accessories maybe? I'm just not seeing it anywhere in Start.

ADDED LATER: Maybe the 'Run' bit of Start?

It may depend upon the particular version of Windows you are running. On my "Windows ME" (now outdated and I am going to replace it), I can go to "Programs", "Accessories" and find "MS-Dos Prompt".
 
Hit Start->Run, type "command.exe" (or just "command") and hit enter.

And, since matrixvb is a commercial product from the MathWorks, I need to close this thread. We don't condone piracy here.
