When writing programs that utilize the User Interface (UI) Toolbox
routines, it is not advisable to use the OPTION BASE 1 statement. This
can create run-time errors, such as "Illegal function call," because
the UI Toolbox uses index "zero" in arrays that must be in COMMON
SHARED between your modules.
This information applies to Microsoft BASIC Professional Development
System (PDS) Version 7.00 for MS-DOS.
