Creative Basic (CB) is a third-generation event-driven programming language for Windows, with an integrated development environment (IDE).
Current version executables are interpreted and require no runtime libraries be installed on the end-user's computer. A planned future version will have compiled executables.
Creative Basic has an extensive command set, and access to the application programming interface (API) libraries available in the Microsoft Windows operating system.
Although this modern version dates from 2007, it is a development from, and is completely compatible with IBasic, which has been in use worldwide since 2002.
Some notable projects are Jerry Muelver's WikiWriter, a WikiWriter to Chm Wizard by Alyce Watson, and Mike Rainey's manufacturing engineering programs. (see the Links below).

Famous quotes containing the words creative and/or basic:
“Perhaps our national ambition to standardize ourselves has behind it the notion that democracy means standardization. But standardization is the surest way to destroy the initiative, to benumb the creative impulse above all else essential to the vitality and growth of democratic ideals.”
—Ida M. Tarbell (1857–1944)
“It seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. So it happens that when I write of hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it and the hunger for it ... and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied ... and it is all one.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (b. 1908)
