    aping:

    I can understand why you are confused, because it is rather difficult to figure out just what you are supposed to do based upon the instructions.
    I can see that you will have three textboxes and three label for Ticker, Price, and Order Size.
    You will also have a command button that will be clicked on to call the code to do the calculations.
    In addition, it appears that you need to have a grid where the calculations are written to.
    You have been given a formular: Cell(1) = price * Var1 + price^2/Var2, and I can understand that formula: it is the price times Var1 plus the price squared divided by Var2.
    You are given a comma separated text file, coeffs.txt, which contains values for the Ticker, Var1 and Var2. Are you supposed to write code to read those values from the text file into your program???
    Also, I don't understand the labeling of the grid. Down the left side it has Price+3, Price+2, Price+1. Price00, etc. I don't know what this is supposed to indicate. I also don't know what the figures across the top of the grid <1, <2, etc. are supposed to represent. Unless you have some more information, I don't think anyone will be able to figure out just what you need to do.
    I know you are going to write code and put it in the command button so that when it is clicked the calculations will happen and the results will be displayed in the grid. I just can't figure out just what you are supposed to be calculating and what the labeling of the grid means.
    I don't think it would be a problem to write the code. The problem is trying to figure out what you are supposed to be doing.

    Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

    Good Luck
