DECLARE SUB permute (a$)
CLS
DEFDBL A-Z
a$ = "1234567890": h$ = a$
PRINT " hell", " eden", " overlap"
DO
  IF INSTR(a$, "0") > 3 THEN
    h = VAL(MID$(a$, 1, 1))
    e = VAL(MID$(a$, 2, 1))
    o = VAL(MID$(a$, 3, 1))
    l = VAL(MID$(a$, 4, 1))
    d = VAL(MID$(a$, 5, 1))
    n = VAL(MID$(a$, 6, 1))
    v = VAL(MID$(a$, 7, 1))
    r = VAL(MID$(a$, 8, 1))
    a = VAL(MID$(a$, 9, 1))
    p = VAL(MID$(a$, 10, 1))
  END IF
  hell = 1000 * h + 100 * e + 11 * l
  eden = 1010 * e + 100 * d + n
  overlap = 1000000 * o + 100000 * v + 10000 * e + 1000 * r + 100 * l + 10 * a + p
  IF hell * eden = overlap THEN PRINT hell, eden, overlap
  permute a$
LOOP UNTIL a$ = h$


finds

hell          eden          overlap
2433          4047          9846351

resulting in
