Many years ago, one of the old Revelation releases (D? Don't think it was as late as G) contained the source to a utility program to convert PROCs from a PICK system to R/BASIC source. If memory serves, the converter program was called PQ and I think there was a block of source called PQ.SUBS that was inserted into each converted program.

I've begun digging through my stuff to find this because a current need has arisen, but I thought I'd check with the group here to see if anyone still has these source files lying around in plainer sight.

Thanks,

If I remember correctly, PQ and its pieces came from ZADAK as part of their A/SHARE package. Unfortunately (for you), that went by the boards many years ago for me. I had it installed in my REV F system to do work for a client. The software, license and "Dongle" that shipped with it went to them. I think it was Kitchler Lighting in Cincinnati Ohio. A quick call to them tells me that they no longer have the machine (MS-DOS 3.1x on an AT).

Thanks, Don. I feel certain I have it on a 5.25" floppy in my archives somewhere, but will have to get the old drive out of the parts box and hook it up to the machine to get it back. Was hoping I could save this effort.

IIRC, the version I had came from Cosmos on a utility disk and didn't require a dongle. I do recall that it worked very well on report PROCs if the author didn't get too fancy with buffers, etc. Fortunately this is what I have a lot of that require conversion.

Appreciate the effort,

Jim
