UserDefined data types

anyone?

I'll try to answer you in a couple of minutes.

okay thank you,,

if I understand you correctly, what you want is to open a binary file containing these records and read it to it's bitter end, then use the records to populate a listbox.

Assuming you alreafy have a binary file with the records:

Code:

---

dim counter as integer
dim record as Housesize_const_rm

counter=0
open "washington.irving" for binary as #1

do until eof(1)
    get #1, counter*len(record)+1, record
    list1.additem str(record.housesize_rm), counter
    list1.itemdata(counter) =record.housecost_rm
loop

---

I hope this works and it is what you wanted.

This should give you some help.


You need one module.
One form.
On the form you need a listbox, Two Command Buttons and a text box.

Code:

---

'Module code


Public Type Housesize_cost_rm
        Housesize_rm As Integer
        Housecost_rm As Currency
End Type

'Form Code


Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim House As Housesize_cost_rm
Dim x As Long
Dim y As Long
Dim p As Long

x = Int(Rnd * 20000) + 100000
y = Int(Rnd * 3000) + 2000
House.Housecost_rm = x
House.Housesize_rm = y
List1.AddItem House.Housesize_rm
List1.ItemData(0) = House.Housecost_rm


End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
Text1.Text = List1.ItemData(0)
End Sub

---

If you have any problems just ask.

Using Lab 7, the yacht program, populate the list box that contains the yacht sizes with the random file ransize. This file is located on the cslabs server under Cubre in the folder called Random. It is called ransize. Each record in the file contains two fields, an integer yacht size and the hourly cost as currency data type. The size of the yachts are to be stored in the .list property of the list box and the cost is to be stored in the itemdata portion of the same list box. See pages 304-306 and 354-356 of your textbook.



That is what I need.
