help collage assignment
I have to make an application in VB 2008 that will be connected to a base of knowledge and should have
login, admin, user parts
can someone of you who is better than me in this (I've never worked in VB) make a skeleton of this and I will beautify and connect it to the database and all that is yet to be asked of me.
login window can be with 2 text boxes to enter passwords and names.
admin part must have a part where admin can enter questions and answers in the database(4 wrong and 1 right), a part for deleting and a part for entering passwords and users in the database
user part should be able to print a question from the database, and these 5 answers in random there must be the checkbox next to each, and the ability to store the answers in the database, after which new question and answers are showned from the database
Thanks to all who will help me!
P.S. you don't need to program buttons in the admin and user parts I will do it. I just need in the login window users default nick is student and pass is student, and for the admin section admin admin

I do this for a living. My cost as a consultant is $100 an hour. Do you want to pay that?

Re: help collage assignment
What Gary posted might sound harsh, but it is what you need to hear.
Your project is very advanced for someone who has "never worked in VB", and as such you will have to learn lots of things to even be able to do the simpler parts of it. Despite your comment of wanting "just a small part in the beginning", we have more than enough experience to know that it will not turn out that way.
Your latest post was a significant improvement, but is still at the stage where you want other people to do your work for you, and also seems to be a bigger chunk than you should be thinking about.
What I would recommend is breaking things down into even smaller chunks (such as just showing another form), and then:
- start by trying to work it out by yourself, by typing code and/or reading the help.
- If you can't manage to work it out, try using the Search link near the top of the page to see if there are previous posts on the topic (there usually are), as the answer is likely to be there.
- If you still haven't got the answer, that is the time to ask for help. Make a new thread in the apt forum (for VB2008 that is our VB.Net forum), including an explanation of what you are trying to achieve, and what code you have tried, etc.
If you do that then you will learn more, usually get the answers quicker, and people will be much more likely to help you.

Re: help collage assignment
i thought that these forums are here to help you but ok...
i can't understand how a simple code like that (for you) i so hard to write here...
i made login window today and i need to program OK button but nobody is willing to help.
i don't need some monster code that searches through the database, just a simple code with two user names and two passwords for admin and user or even simpler with user name and pass

Regardless of how 'simple' it would be, we are not here to do other people's home work, as mentioned previous if you're not going to make an attempt, that's your own problem.

They most certainly are, which is why thousands of people keep coming back.
Unfortunately what you want is not help, what you want is us to do your coursework (or part of it) for you - and that is extremely different.
You are the one on the course, so it is ridiculous that you are even asking strangers to do your coursework for you. There is an awful lot you need to learn for this project, and so far you haven't even started on the most simple part.
Put in some effort yourself first (using the help, or tutorials etc), and then people will be able (and much more willing) to help.

Re: help collage assignment
ok but if i asked can someone help me i'm having problems with connecting two windows together you wouldn't have atacked me for not doing my work.
For your information my professor told me i could use help from forums couse the literature for this assignment is very vast and that i would have to read 2000 pages at minimum.
and yes if i haven't been honest and wrote help collage assignment but insted wrote biginer needs help we wouldn't been having this argument

Re: help collage assignment
part of the issue is that you also posted this in the PROJECT REQUEST section... rather than under the appropriate .NET section.... you might have gotten a different response from that as well.
What is it EXACTLY you are having problems with? What code do you have? Are you getting errors? Are you stuck on something and just need a nudge in the right direction?
If I might make a suggestion....
1) take a deep breath...let it out, relax.
2) Ask a mod to close this thread before things get too far out of control.
3) Follow si's suggestion: "If you still haven't got the answer, that is the time to ask for help. Make a new thread in the apt forum (for VB2008 that is our VB.Net forum), including an explanation of what you are trying to achieve, and what code you have tried, etc."
4) Be honest, let people know that it is part of the assignment, and also let them know that your instructor has given the OK to get help
5) Show what code you do have, (be sure to use [code][/code] or [highlight=vb][/highlight] tags as needed. Then explain, in clear sentences what you are struggling with and what the problem is. Statements like "I just need in the login window users default nick is student and pass is student, and for the admin section admin admin" don't help... that doesn't tell us what the problem is. Statements like "It needs to check the username and password against a users table in the database, and I can't figure out how to get the data from the database" does tell us. And it might be that we point you to a link or two... read through the linked material. Do your best, then come back with "I tried, x, y, z... and it didn't seem to work." and explain what errors you are getting or what you expected to happen that didn't. Or explain what did happen that shouldn't have happen.

Being a college assignment doesn't help (being honest did), but as several of us have tried to explain that was not the issue.
The issue is that you have an awful lot to learn, yet have not started trying to do it yourself - and you can at least make a reasonable start, we've seen thousands do it.
Despite what you might like to think, giving you a 'simple' piece of code will not help, as you have far harder things to learn in the rest of the project. There have been lots of people who started out the same way as you did, and we are well aware that if we do the work for you now then you will almost certainly put in less effort later (and possibly give up/fail the course), as you will have understood even less of it.
We have been trying to persuade you to put in a little effort to get to a position where it is possible for us to actually help, but it is your choice whether you do that, or continue trying to make out that the strangers giving up their free time for you are the ones who are acting out of order.
You have been given good advice, I recommend you take it.

That's an extremely good idea, so I've done it.
