    Simple Program

    Hi there,

    I want to make a simple program to keep all my game and program serials in.
    I want to us a combo box to show all the names and a text box to show the serials.
    How do I go about this?

    ---ESQ---

    How is this a Codebank submission?

    Regarding your question. You will need to store the information somewhere (a file/database) and then retrieve it from there.
    Use [code] source code here[/code] tags when you post source code.

    If you're talking about a *simple* program, forget any database system unless you know how to use databases...I would stick with a simple text file.

    How computer literate are you? Do you understand how combo boxes and text boxes work? If not, you're more asking for someone to *write* the code for you and you really should tell people this rather than saying you want to make the program. I personally don't use comboboxes, and I could probably make what you're asking for using a simple listbox/listview and the textbox :-)
    Well, everyone else has been doing it :-)

    If I have helped you, RATE ME! :-)

    I love helping noobs with their VB problems (probably because, as an amateur programmer, I am only slightly better at VB than them :-)) but if you SERIOUSLY want to get help for free from a community such as VBForums, you have to first have a grounding (basic knowledge) in VB6, otherwise you're way too much work to help...You've got to give a little if you want to get help from us, in other words!

    And we DON'T do your homework. If your tutor doesn't teach you enough to help you make the project without his or her help, FIND A BETTER TUTOR or try reading books on programming! We are happy to help with minor things regarding the project, but you have to understand the rest of it if you want our help to be useful.
