Oookay...

Dark basic pro can do online stuff.
Dark Basic Cannot.
Blitz Basic can do online stuff.
Darkbasic can execute other EXEs.
Therefore:
Make a program that reads data from a text file that is periodically updated by a Blitz Program.

Now you may pick holes in this theory. As I don't want to be left out:

-I still haven't learned Blitz yet.
-It will probably go slower than an English Literature Lesson.
-No one cares as DBPro is out now.

But hey.

can i pick a hole in this?

DarkBasic Enhanced CAN do online stuff (e.g. DarkBasic 1.1x)
it even retains the FTP abilities after the 30days trial, which is really all you need for updating/patching

hehee you like the hole pick?

I can't download the patches for some reason (I have tried several times), so this is mainly my way of getting around it.
