Yes; it's a bit old, and crufty. It'll parse a good subset of QBasic code,
but doesn't handle graphics. I stopped work on it when I ran into complex
types - it was just a bit too complex to handle, and not part of the
original design, since I never used them myself.
It generates Euphoria code, but the result isn't entirely readable, or
intuitive. That's because it emulates stuff like allowing parameters of
subroutines and functions to change, and GOTO statements. If I were to code
it today, I'd just routine_id and write an interpreter instead of a
translator Still, you might find it pretty interesting, and possibly even
useful.

It's on the RDS site, but the keyword is 'QBasic'.
