There's an elephant in the room
Allow me to illuminate it
The first post (yes, we diverged from it pretty far now) shows a good program that will convert MM to IN or IN to MM,
HOWEVER, I must insist that the user may have a THIRD idea in mind. That is to quit, to end, to return to life before metric conversions.
I would humbly suggest to redo the first post code with a DO LOOP, an input of something like
What would you like to do?
1. Convert MM to in
2. Convert in to MM
3. Quit
Then LOOP until the item chosen was 3.
My 2c. After taxes

That's what I mentioned doing here: https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3395&pid=31418#pid31418
Only difference is I just ran a loop until the end value was 0 for conversion.

That's not an elephant that is a pig, just getting greedy for more
I agree it is an obvious mod to make.
