CDECL is missing from the DECLARE statement in the BASIC source code
example. The code segment should be changed to read as follows:

  '     BASIC SOURCE CODE
  '
            COMMON /Cblock/ n%, x#, y#
            DECLARE SUB INITCB CDECL (n%)
  .
  .
  .

The correction above applies to Page 317 of the following manuals:

1. "Microsoft QuickBASIC 4.00: Learning and Using"

2. "Microsoft BASIC Compiler Version 6.00 for MS-DOS and OS/2:
   Learning and Using Microsoft QuickBASIC"
