I'm doing great in my VB class, thanks to the help of some of you folks explaining things to me. I had this wonderful program I did for a project assignment, and saved it to diskette (no lectures please!) and the diskette is corrupted. The project is due *tomorrow* (Thursday the 30th) and all my notes, everything was on that diskette. I can't even figure out where to start it, my brain is fried from being upset. And so, I'm asking if someone will just plain DO this thing for me, and I'll tweak it. Honest, I know the stuff, but I'm so bent out of shape I can't even think anymore.

Here's the project (and remember, nothing fancy - this is a beginner's class!)

1) Design a form that receives the following info into text boxes:

customer name, address, city, state, zip, number of items ordered, price of item, sales tax rate.

2) each text box should have a label to the left, with an access key for each box.

3) program used by sales people on the phone or at a counter. Each time an item is ordered it is deducted from the inventory. Only one order per customer (who can buy more than one item in that order).

a) starting inventory: 100 of each of the following - skateboards @ $10.00 each, baseballs @ $5.00 each, helmets @ $20.00 each.

b) program should calculate order, clear the screen, display current inventory of all 3 items.

4) Five states in the state box - Connecticut (CT), Rhode Island (RI), New York (NY), Virginia (VA), and California (CA) listed in alpha order with CT being the default on focus. Tax rate for states would be CT: .04, RI: .03, VA: .02, NY: .05, CA: .05. Use if/then/else logic to test for bad data.

5) Allow name/address/etc. input to be stored in a simple data file, using either winword or notepad

That's it. For professional programmers this should be a piece of cake. I could do it myself if I had a few days, and it was almost completed except for the data file coding before my diskette went kablooey.

If anyone takes a stab at this and can get it to work, PLEASE send it to [email protected] asap.

Thanks,

Roberta
