Syntax error if I add anything, including comments

[RiverRaider73]

If I add anything, including a mere comment, I get syntax errors and my code won't compile. It doesn't make any sense at all. Anyone know what the problem is?

I've been having this issue too. I suspect that it must have something to do with the compiler or visual bB, but I don't really know what I'm talking about

Perhaps re-installing would solve the issue?

Are you using the newest version of batari Basic?

If you are, it's probably something silly like not having a space after rem. The only way to know for sure would be for you to attach your .bas file.

This is quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever encountered in my life, but I fixed it on my end by copying the code into a new project and it worked fine. It will compile in the new project but not the old....so try that if you haven't already

In a program you posted in another thread, you had 2 REMs that didn't have a space after REM and it wouldn't compile for me until I changed something like "rem---------" to "rem -------".

That was probably my problem then as I pasted my code over to the new project in separate segments and I left a lot of my comments in the old project
