http://msconline.maconstate.edu/MSCO...SU/Sum04A2.gif
This is what I can't figure out:
Salespersons.Text = +1 on click
Total Sales = SalesAmount1 + SalesAmount2 + SalesAmount3
Average Sales = Total Sales/Salespersons , but the first time I click Gross Pay a "0" displays
Please help me VB Gods!

Salespersons.Text is a string. Either
SP=val(salespersons.Text)
SP =+1
Salespersons.Text=str(SP)
or
Salespersons.Text=str(val(salespersons.text)+1)
In the case of
"Average Sales = Total Sales/Salespersons , but the first time I click "
What is "salespersons", a numerical variable? If so, from where does it get it's value?
Wasn't this covered in your other thread?:confused:
Never got it to work right so I decided to post it easier put. The Salespersons box is a numeric value that changes everytime a user inputs data in the Sales Amount box. 1st user input should display 1 salesperson, then 2 salespersons for the 2nd user input, and so on. I can get Average sales to work (just Total Sales/Salespersons) but when I enter the very first vlaue it displays 0 instead of just whatever the total sales is.
Maybe this will help you out: This is actually my assignment and here is the link for the example:
http://msconline.maconstate.edu/MSCO...SU/Sum04A2.gif
Objectives:
Design an interface following interface design rules and windows standards. Use variables & constants correctly. Use proper formatting for output.
Problem:
Create an application to display a salesperson’s gross pay with base and commission based on the following: Base pay is $500; commission is 6% of sales (use constants to represent these). The user enters the salesperson’s total sales; keep track of each salesperson’s sales and the number of salespersons. Display the current person’s gross pay and the summary of: total salespersons, total amount of all sales, and average sales per salesperson. Option strict is on.
Use a numeric up down for amount of sales. Set the minimum to 1 and the maximum to 15000. Set the increment to .01 and decimal places to 2.
Declare module level variables for number of sales people and total sales.
Calculate Click Event:
1. Declare variable for sales and constants for base pay, commission.
2. Get user input and place in variable.
3. Calculate gross pay:
Gross Pay = Base Pay + Sales * Commission
4. Display Formatted Gross Pay, summary: total sales people, total sales, and average sales/person.
Close Click Event:
1. Exit the application
Reset Click Event:
1. Reset values of numeric up down to starting values.
2. Clear result for this person’s gross pay only.
3. Set focus to sales amount numeric up down.
Reset All Click Event:
1. Reset values of numeric up down to starting value.
2. Clear all results (current & summary).
3. Set focus to starting numeric up down.
Test Data:
Sales Amount 800.00, 1500.00 and 8,543.65
Gross Pay 548.00, 590.00 and 1,012.62
Summary
Sales People 1, 2, and 3
Total Sales 800.00, 2,300.00, and 10,843.65
Avg Sales/Person 800.00, 1,150.00, and 3,614.55
All I really need to figure out is how to set up everything for the SUMMARY Group Box. Thanks!
And here I was, all intimidated about coming in this thread. It doesn't look too bad. Maybe I'm some kind of coding minor diety or something.
Anyway.
You say you just need help setting up the summary stuff, right? Well, according to your link, you have 3 textboxes, so you'll need at least 3 variables, Let's say SP for Salespersons, TS for Total Sales, and AS for Average Sales.
In the Gross Pay button click event, you need to:
- Increment SP by one
- Increment TS by the amount entered by the user
- Compute the average for AS
Computing AS is easy, it is just TS divided by SP.
So, the real issue is how to display them. I think that might be the point of the assignment, and I'd hate to just cast the answers to you. Learning to code that way is like learning to walk with a cast on your leg. What a cast of characters we would be if we just gave the answers away.
Try using doubles in your values instead of Integers. That way the maths won't give you a 0.
Well I have figured that out all by myself, but sure could use some help with the code. I set up the variables SP, TS, AV (since AS is confusing "As") I have calculated Gross Pay and have tried numerous things to increment SP by one, and increment TS by the amount entered by the user, and once I get SP and TS to work, then I know AV will work fine. So is this close to how the code would look:Quote:

SP = +1
TS = TS + SalesAmountEnteredbyUser
Please help I need to turn in tomorrow!
Hi twisted,
This is crazy, you are making lots of people repeat what you have already been shown. Your final post in your previous thread was that "It did not work". It should have done. What precisely did not work?
You ARE using VB.NET 2003 ar'nt you?
EDIT
Everybody. This guy has posted the same question in the VB6 etc Forum as well as twice in this forum.
Alright, if it's not too late, you need to look up casting in the MSDN. That will tell you how to change the the strings into doubles. Integers have no decimal places.
As for your examples, I'm not sure if SP= +1 will work, and I don't have the time right now to try it, but SP = SP + 1 will do what you need to do. Your example for TS is close, but you need to take what is entered in the textbox and cast it as a double before adding it.
I can't believe it I figured it out! It was this simple:
Dim SP As Double
Dim TS As Double
Dim AV As Double
Private Sub btnClick_Click()
SP = Val(txtSalespersons.Text)
TS = Val(txtTotalSales.Text)
AV = Val(txtAverageSales.Text)
txtSalespersons.Text = 1 + SP
txtTotalSales.Text = SP + TS
AV = TS/SP
txtAverageSales.Text = Format($###0.00)
End Sub
I just started a new project and started playing around and figured it out. Thanks for the patience guys. I have a whole semester of this stuff so I'm sure I'll be back needing help. Thanks again!
Are you claiming that you have used the above code in VB.NET and it works?Quote:

i think you are right taxes, this code cannot be vb.net , look at the event handler head (no parameters ) and no handles keyword ?????
Very Strange
