Dear All,
Apologies if this is a question that doesn't have a solution and you've heard it many times! ;-)
I have some old code (see content of mak file below) in VB3 that I would like to try to get to a state to further develop and recompile. I use it for lecturing at my University (I'm a hydrologist) and it was written by a colleague 'back in the day' (in fact my ex PhD supervisor). It's a hydrological model (basically) with a nice front end on it for visualising rainfall-runoff simulations and I use it in one of my lab practicals, but it's getting to the poitn soon I won't be able to do this and it's a bit flakey (and now restricted in how it was compiled with certain array space)
Do I have any options at all to turn this into more modern code that will run on newer machines. It seems such a pity that it's falling over a bit now. My University has kindly setup a virtual 32bit server to run this over the network (it's a bit flakey in this mode) but what I'd really like to do is get this to a state I can get the ascii code out, recompile and further develop. I'm happy to pay someone for some help with changes that I am sure need to be made to calls etc., however at the moment the codes are in .bas binary files and I can't get anywhere. Thanks for your time. The .mak file is detailed below (by the way TOPMODEL is for TOPOGRAPHIC MODEL and not something to do with supermodels!!): I have everything that is listed here.....
