SUMMARY
The following information applies to QuickBasic Versions 4.00, 4.00b,
and 4.50, to the QB.EXE programs supplied with Microsoft Basic
Compiler Versions 6.00 and 6.00b for MS-DOS and OS/2, and to the
QBX.EXE environment supplied with the Basic PDS Version 7.00 for
MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
The F7 function in the QB.EXE editor/debugger causes the program to execute up to the current location of the cursor. If you attempt to execute a program using F7 while the cursor is inside a user-defined TYPE...END TYPE block, the error message "Statement illegal in TYPE block" is returned. This only happens the first time that the program is executed.
