I have a monopoly like game created by an old college buddy in 1988. I've been carrying the floppy for all these years and finally bought an SE. To my suprise it worked but I would like to make some modifications if possible. Anyway the program says it was created with BASCOM. I have the application program and a file called bas.rl which I'm thinking is the source code because the game will not run without that file. I've tried to open it with Microsoft QuickBASIC but no luck. Does anyone know if that bas.rl is the source code and what would I use to open and modify it? For grins I did rename the file to rl.bas just to see if the basic program would open it because it do come with .bas sample files. Still no luck. Thanks.

Thats kind of odd, considering I use BASCOM-AVR today for microcontrollers.
Well I was wrong. That bas.rl file is not source code.. It's a file used by MS Basic Compiler 1.0 in the basic overlays folder. I guess if I want to change the program I will have to start from scratch unless there is a way to decompile a program written in MS Basic 1,2, or 3 more than likely.
