Well, we sorta need to know where the data is coming from and what you've tried to do so far that hasn't worked. The images you have above are too small to read your code - at least on my machine.

Same here. Try displaying your code by pasting the code in code tags, they look like this:
[CODE]'Hello world![/CODE]

Sorry about that i will try my best to post it with code tags.
again im not sure if i did the code tags correctly i apologize in advance the program i am trying to compile is supposed to be like a checkout at a grocery. I am at the point where i need to display the item name and the final total price in richtxt4. Its compiled that only the item net price shows in richtxt4.

Public Class SalesTax
    Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles richtxt1.TextChanged

    End Sub
    Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load>

    End Sub

    Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click>
        ' User clicks or taps this button and it will multiply the Item
        ' Price and curent tax rate and display the tax amount in richtxt3

        Dim i As Double = richtxt1.Text
        i *= richtext2.Text
        richtxt3.Text = i.ToString("C")

    End Sub

    Private Sub btncalculate2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btncalculate2.Click
        ' User taps or clicks this button and it will add the tax rate and the item price
        ' and display the net price.

        Dim txtboxItem As String
        txtboxItem = richtxt4.Text


        Dim i As Double = richtxt3.Text
        i += richtxt1.Text
        richtxt4.Text = i.ToString("C")


    End Sub

    Private Sub btnClear_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnClear.Click
        ' User taps or clicks this button and it will clear all boxes from any data entered.

        richtxt1.Clear()
        richtext2.Clear()
        richtxt3.Clear()
        richtxt4.Clear()
        txtboxItem.Clear()
    End Sub

    Private Sub BtnExit_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles BtnExit.Click
        ' User taps or clicks this button and will close application.
        Me.Close()

    End Sub

    Private Sub richtxt3_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles richtxt3.TextChanged

    End Sub
End Class

I'm sorry, but I have to laugh... I think you misunderstood dday's explaniation of using the code tags - first time I've seen someone do that and actually a little surprised I hadn't seen it done like that before - hats off to your doggedness in manipulating the code like that. But ... it works like this:


[code] <- use this to mark the START of your code

THIS is where your code code

[/code] <- use this to mark the END of the code


So an example would look like this:

[code]
Dim a as Integer
a = 10
Messagebox.show(a.Tostring)
[/code]


and it will come out looking like this:

Dim a as Integer
a = 10
Messagebox.show(a.Tostring)

There's actually a toolbar button above the editor that has a '#' symbol. This will take any highlighted text and wrap it in code tags.

So you can put your code in the editor, highlight it, and then use the toolbar button to enclose it in code tags.

Or... you can just click on the toolbar button and it will put empty tags in the editor. You can then paste your code in between the tags.
