Mike,
Visual Basic is the normal evolution for old Basic programs like yours.
You can directly reuse the source code for most of your algorithms, but
you will have to rewrite the user interface. VB makes it really easy to
generate a good looking visual interface that will make your program
look professional. Of course, VB is Windows only.
The most popular versions (in my opinion, not a scientific study :-) are:
1) VB 3.0, the oldest version that one might want to consider using
because it was quite popular and useful, and I happen to have an old
legitimate copy that I do not use anymore and I would be glad to let you
have it for you to play with (and do such silly things as convert your
old DOS BASIC programs...) if I can find it,
2) VB 6.0, the one I am currently using most, because it is WIDELY
popular and used by a lot of professional software writers and very well
supported by various groups on the Internet, and
3) VB.NET, the current version, where VB stands for Very Bloated. Nuf said.
Being a MSDN licensee, I have access to all versions but I prefer VB 6.0
for general Windows software.
Let me know if you are interested, I will dig up my old VB 3.0 disks.
