What are you using at the end of the INPUT statement? Are you using a comma or semi-colon. IF you use a semicolon then it adds the question mark. So try doing INPUT "What is your name"; N$ and it will ask What is your name?

If you want to use QBasic on modern computers I recommend QB64, it's 99% compatible right now with QB 4.5 and has many additions that doesn't break compatibility and brings QB to this century! Try it, you won't be dissapointed, it's free and source is provided.

What should I save this files as (.bat/.bas/.etc) in order to run them? Or so I could run them with an emulator like Dosbox?

[RealMagician]

because that guy doesnt know what he's doing

try this

INPUT "", blahvariable

or if you want the user to be able to enter commas as well use LINE INPUT

try

LINE INPUT "LOL gimme ur name: ", name$

PRINT "hello, " + name$
