I worked on a program a few years ago that takes data from a series of text files and loads an Access database. I added to the code from a program started by someone else, so I did not write the imports and declarations. They used an ADODB.recordset, addnew and …

Hmmm... I ran your code and had no problem! I get 3.4225. Are you using a font that might not show the decimal or it is too small to see? Try putting a msgbox to test the value after the calculation: `MsgBox(height & " " & heightSquared)`

It looks like you are adding the record *before* you check the count. Move the update into an Else clause of your If...Then statement and it will only occur if the record does not exist. I think it should look like: Dim sure As String = " select * from …

You can use the Tag property of the textboxes to specify that they are to be part of the sum and then loop through the controls. I used a button, but the same thing will work by handeling the textchange. Also, I did one column, but if I used 2 …

I cannot help with specific code as I use VB.Net, not 4/5/6, but I would create an array of the Hangman word by looping through the word, using "Mid" to isolate each letter of the word and assign each letter to the array. Then I would put these individual letters …

I think you are close too. [CODE]SQLstr = "INSERT INTO Users (Username, Password) VALUES (" & txtUsername.Text & ", " & txtPassword.text & ")"[/CODE] Also, try to get the exception to appear in your message box - not just the word error.

My first program was in the mid-1970's. High school had a Wang computer. Cassette tape for storage! I was not allowed to take the only programming class offered because my math was not strong enough, but I would go into the computer lab and play. I learned to write some …
