Remark: This article describes the BASIC command DLOAD in Commodore BASIC V3.5 or higher.
Type: Command General Programming-Syntax: DLOAD [<filename>] [,D<drive number>] [[,]ON U<device number>]
DLOAD is a BASIC 3.5/7.0 command that loads a BASIC program from disk into current memory. (Use LOAD to load programs from tape.) The program must be specified by a filename of up to 16 characters. DLOAD assumes device number 8, drive 0.
- <filename> may be an asterisk (*) to load the first file on the device.
Permissible values (always interpreted as integer) for parameters:
- <device number> (device 8, if not specified) is from 3 to 31 for BASIC 3.5/BASIC 4 or from 4 to 30 for BASIC 7.0,
- <drive> is 0 or 1 (drive 0 if not given).
Examples[edit | edit source]
Searches the disk for the program "BANKRECS" and LOADs it.
DLOAD "BANKRECS"
LOADs a program from disk whose name is stored in the variable A$. An error message is given if A$ is empty. Remember, when a variable is used as a filename, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
DLOAD (A$)
DLOAD "SPIEL1"
Load the program SPIEL1 from disk, which works in disk drive 0 with the device number 8.
DLOAD "*",U9
load the first program from disk, which works in disk drive 0 with the device number 8.
DLOAD "TOOL?",D1
load the first program, which is 5 chars long and contains the char string TOOL from drive 1 of a double floppy disk with the device number 8.
