recalculation of totals when items have been removed

Help!!!! I'm new to VB6 i've removed items from using .removeitems, but now i have to recalcualte the Quantity total and Overall Price total, how do you do this calculation as i can't get them to work properly.

Can someone please help me!!

Need more info...

What did you remove items from?
Where are the Quantity and Overall Price stored?
What is used to calculate them?

Some code would help.

If you can help that'll be great. Here it goes!!

Items were removed from list boxes.
Quantity totals and overall price total is stored in textboxes
The purchase button is used to calculate them. There is no code in the quantitytotals and overall price totals. they just show the amounts.

i am trying to recalculate the amounts through the remove button

Code for purchase/ remove button below

Private Sub CmdPurchase_Click()
If txtQuant.Text = "" Then
MsgBox "Please enter a Quantity", vbExclamation, "Error!"
Else
lstItem.AddItem ComboItem.Text
lstPrice1.AddItem lstprice.Text
lstQuant1.AddItem txtQuant.Text
quantity = Val(txtQuant.Text)
iprice = Val(lstprice.Text)
lstTotPrice.AddItem quantity * iprice
totalQuant = totalQuant + Val(txtQuant.Text)
totalPrice = totalPrice + Str$(Val(lstprice.Text) * Val(txtQuant.Text))
TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice
txtQuant.Text = ""
End If

I've deleted te calculations from the remove button as i got myself inot a tizz

Private Sub cmdRemove_Click()
lstItem.RemoveItem lstItem.ListIndex
lstPrice1.RemoveItem (remItem)
lstQuant1.RemoveItem (remItem)
lstTotPrice.RemoveItem (remItem)
TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice
End Sub

Thanks alot

VB Code:

Private Sub cmdRemove_Click() 
    totalQuant = totalQuant - Val(lstQuant1.Text) 
    totalPrice = totalPrice - Val(lstPrice1.Text) 
    TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant 
    TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice 
 
    lstItem.RemoveItem lstItem.ListIndex 
    lstPrice1.RemoveItem (remItem) 
    lstQuant1.RemoveItem (remItem) 
    lstTotPrice.RemoveItem (remItem) 
    TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant 
    TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice 
End Sub

Does this help?

Thanks John but Nope it doesn't work

It is clearing the lstboxes but not recaluclating the totals
Am sending all the code for this form to see if that helps

Dim Filename As String
Dim f As Integer
Dim item As String
Dim Price As String
Dim quantity As Integer
Dim iprice As Currency
Dim totalQuant As Integer
Dim totalPrice As Currency


Private Sub CmdAdd_Click()
form2.Hide
Form1.Show
End Sub

Private Sub cmdclear_Click()
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to clear all these purchases?", vbQuestion + vbOKCancel, "Message Box") = vbOK Then
lstItem.Clear
lstItem.SetFocus
lstPrice1.Clear
lstQuant1.Clear
lstTotPrice.Clear
TxtTotalQuant.Text = "0"
TxtTotalprice2.Text = "00.00"
totalQuant = 0
totalPrice = 0
End If
End Sub

Private Sub CmdPurchase_Click()
If txtQuant.Text = "" Then
MsgBox "Please enter a Quantity", vbExclamation, "Error!"
Else
lstItem.AddItem ComboItem.Text
lstPrice1.AddItem lstprice.Text
lstQuant1.AddItem txtQuant.Text
quantity = Val(txtQuant.Text)
iprice = Val(lstprice.Text)
lstTotPrice.AddItem quantity * iprice
totalQuant = totalQuant + Val(txtQuant.Text)
totalPrice = totalPrice + Str$(Val(lstprice.Text) * Val(txtQuant.Text))
TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice
txtQuant.Text = ""
End If
End Sub

Private Sub cmdQuit_Click()
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to Quit?", vbYesNo, "Goodbye") = vbYes Then
End
End If
End Sub


Private Sub cmdRemove_Click()
totalQuant = totalQuant - Val(lstQuant1.Text)
totalPrice = totalPrice - Val(lstPrice1.Text)
TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice

lstItem.RemoveItem lstItem.ListIndex
lstPrice1.RemoveItem (remItem)
lstQuant1.RemoveItem (remItem)
lstTotPrice.RemoveItem (remItem)
TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice
End Sub


Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()
form2.Hide
Form3.Show
End Sub

Private Sub ComboItem_Click()
lstprice.ListIndex = ComboItem.ListIndex
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
'open the file
CommonDialog1.Filter = "all files (*.*)|*.*"
CommonDialog1.FilterIndex = 2
CommonDialog1.ShowOpen
Filename = CommonDialog1.Filename
f = FreeFile
Open "A:\Item List.txt" For Input As #f
'read the file and put in list box

Do
Input #f, item, Price
'print item, price
ComboItem.AddItem (item)
lstprice.AddItem (Price)
'add to list
Loop Until EOF(f)
Close #f
TxtTotalQuant.Text = "0"
TxtTotalprice2.Text = "00.00"
End Sub

Upload the form and i'll fix it for yah. I don't wanna have to make the form myslef and create all those controls and rename em and stuff.

I din't have time to go through all the code, but I think this should do it.

VB Code:

Private Sub cmdRemove_Click()
    totalQuant = totalQuant - Val(lstQuant1.List(lstItem.ListIndex))
    totalPrice = totalPrice - Val(lstPrice1.List(lstItem.ListIndex))
    TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
    TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice
 
    lstItem.RemoveItem lstItem.ListIndex
    lstPrice1.RemoveItem (remItem)
    lstQuant1.RemoveItem (remItem)
    lstTotPrice.RemoveItem (remItem)
    TxtTotalQuant.Text = totalQuant
    TxtTotalprice2.Text = totalPrice
End Sub

If not, Arc's suggestion is a good one.

BTW, I didn't see where you were setting the value of 'remItem', maybe I just missed it. Are you using Option Explicit?

Thanks John but it still didn't work i tried it that way

Arc the form won't upload if i get it to work i will send it. thanks for your offer
K

Thanks John/Arc

Got them it to work thanks for your help
