This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Hi there fellow members,
I wonder if anyone can help, I am on the look out
for a Database prog for the BBC Master, which will enable me to store and
recall a series of Telephone numbers, Names and Addresses. Either a
printed listing or a 5.25" 40 or 80 Track Disc would be fine.
To date I have been experimenting with a database listing
from the Acorn Electron Programming Book, by Neil Cryer, on page 278. It
started off life as a Computer Club Database, and I have modified it
slightly replacing the "Computer Box" with "Phone", and also on this
section increased the number of digits sufficient for a 12 didgit phone
number. The program works in general, but when asked to 'FIND', it first
of all requests "Please enter search string" and then after entering the
search string it prints up "No such variable in line 1880".
I have careflly checked out the entire listing many many
times for errors, all to no avail, and have got to the WOW IS ME stage. I
wonder if any other members may have possibly experimented with this
program and perhaps either (a) found it to work correctly for them
(b) encountered the same problems
(c) perhaps encountered and also solved them.
Having now spent so much time playing with the beast I am curious to try
and find out wether there is a genuine listing fault, or wether yours
truly is just being plain THICK !!!
Regards to all,
Ron.
Have you tried the data base from EUG15? It is very good and EUG15 only
costs a pound.
Can you send your modified version of the program which you mentioned. I
know a number of EUG members will be interested in having a look at it.
Please remember to put a REM statement at the begining stating where you
found the original and if possable the original author and ofcourse that
you have modified it.
