'''QuickBASIC''' is a [[BASIC]] compiler/interpreter for [[DOS]] and [[OS/2]]. It(A shouldversion notwas bealso confusedmade withfor the [[QBasicMacintosh]], whichbut isit anwasn't interpreter-onlynearly versionas ofsuccessful QuickBASICas 4.5the withDOS aversion, reducedand instructionwas discontinued after version set1.) An [[IDE]] has been included with QuickBasic since version 2.0.
 
The final product in the QuickBASIC line was '''QuickBASIC Extended 7.1''', also called '''Microsoft BASIC Professional Development System 7.1''' or '''QBX'''. (According to [[wp:QuickBASIC|Wikipedia's QuickBASIC entry]], the QBX IDE did not run under OS/2.)
Line 7:
 
==QBasic==
QBasic is an interpreter that [[Microsoft]] distributed with later versions of [[MS-DOS]]. It is based on QuickBASIC 4.5, with the [[compiler]] and parts of the language removed. Any program specifically written for QBasic will work under QuickBASIC 4.5 or later without changes.
 
(Note that it is not correct to refer to QuickBASIC as QBasic -- Microsoft considers them to be two seperate products.)
