Hope all that makes sense. I set it up like you said but how do I get the radiobuttons in so that the program sees that radio button Package A is selected and calculates that. I believe that the hoursused If statement is correct I jut dont know how to add in the radio buttons [/code]

When you double click on the particular button on the project form, you'll be presented with a blank function i.e.:

Private Sub Option1_Click()

End Sub

Set any variables and/or calculations specific to the button there. Since VB is "event driven" none of the code written in "Option1_Click()" will execute until the user selects the button.
With that, you may have to re-structure your program flow a bit. I'm no VB guru so can't really help you there.

hope this helps...

Come on, I know thier is some person in this forum knows vb.

I don't know about that one... I don't want to knock the langauge, as it does a fine job of that on its own. Personally I would recommend removing VB from your list of langauges that you use.

Maybe I would agree
but Vb is the easiest learn-by yourself language
I cant learn C++ or JAVA, dont get me started withe Pascal.
Plus, vb has the best visual tool. You can compile and view your program with a touch of a button.

If you use the Dialog control, you can have the user select the file with the dialog. Save the [u]filename[/u] from the dialog into a SaveSetting in the registry. Call it from what ever sub you want to use it in with the GetSetting.

Ex:

Dim MyFile as String <- A VARIABLE TO HOLD THE FILES NAME AND PATH
Dialog1.show open <- Open the dialog and select file
If Dialog1.FileName = "" then exit sub <-If the user cancels avoid error
MyFile = Dialog1.FileName
SaveSetting(app.title,"MySettings","FilePath",MyFile)

now, if you want to get the file name and path you do this

text1.text = GetSetting(app.title,"MySettings","FilePath",""

what's coll about the GetSetting and SaveSetting method is that if you know the name of the app and section and key values, you can also call the same information from ANY vb application you write. I do this all the time when I program. I map databases on several client machines at work and store them this way to call them from other components of the software, also, because the mapping can change from machine to machine, you can DYNAMICALLY add delete or change the keys! If you want more information, let PM me and I will do a short vb proj to demo for you so you can learn how to do it yourself.

I justlooked at your origional post. That program is tres simple my friend, it would take about ten minutes to do. you want it done so you can see how this works? WITHOUT a module?

[odayict]

I didnt have VS 6 on computer installed hence i created the code in VB.NET Hope the logic will understandable.
Just neglect the code with in the #Region tags thats .NET related.

Hi guys, hopefully you can help me. I have to do this program for class and can't seem to figure out what to do. and the d*mn tutorials are helping.

Here is my problem: Create a program where user should select the package for the customer from a set of radio button and enter the number of hours used. A check box captioned "Non-Profit Organization" should also appear on the form. The application should calculate and display the total due. If the user selects "Non Profit Org" check box a 20% discount should be deducted.
Package A: 10 hours for 9.95 Addition Hours 2.00 per hour
Package B: 20 hours for 14.95 Addition Hours 1.00 per hour
Package C: Unlimted hours for 19.95


I have the layout done and all that but I dont know how to calculate the addition hours in with price. If you want I could email you the vb file and you could look at it. What should it look like

Please HELP
