    You have been invited to a project of designing a program that can compute the total cost of sending a parcel from Namibia to other African countries. You are told that the cost of sending parcels is N$2.00 per kilometer. You are also told that, in addition to the cost of sending parcels, customers can be charged the following optional charges: • Insurance: 5% of total cost of sending a parcel. • N$50.00 for sending parcel via express service or overnight service. Write a program in vb 6.0 to enter distance to be send by customer form other African transport. The program must select sending parcel service and display the total charge of the parcel

      Wrong forum. Wrong site in fact; we won't do your homework for you. Try rentacoder.

        And if the destination is Nigeria, wait until they deposit the inheritance of a long lost relative into your bank account (after providing your personal and banking information) and then buy out the postal service and mail to every school a HughesNet satellite dish and a computer for every child so they can download Python from the internet BECAUSE NOBODY PROGRAMS IN VB6 ANYMORE except (and I kid you not) someone I know that has written some software that I have to interface with.

          Well hang on, when I was in college (late-80s) we were subjected to Fortran and COBOL and I suppose VB6 is today's equivalent. Still, I'd prefer Fortran or COBOL... :sigh:

            If you spent half the time and effort you have clearly put into finding an appropriate site to post your homework into actually trying to do trivial tasks like this, you would have finished it by now. But then, you are learning an obsolete language - superseded by VB.NET in 2001, sixteen years ago - so I guess you have already made some pretty poor decisions, haven't you?

              I actually had a coworker who was kind of on his own because he lived on the other side of the country. He had his own customers and his own software. Just once in a while did we need to work together with him on some stuff. Back in 2014 he needed to make a new application for a customer, his language of choice? VB6! A lot of his applications were still VB6 with some old pre-SQL database. Yes, that was what the company once did, but they switched to VB.NET and SQL Server somewhere in 2005. Mind you that this guy still wrote his VB.NET code like it was VB6. Management had already let our customers know we won't support VB6 anymore starting from 2015. I guess this guy did not get the memo (and he really had not learned anything new since 1990) :sigh: In his defense, he has worked for my parents for over 10 years and made them a lot of money because he did get things to work (eventually) :laugh: His customers were generally happy with his software, his coworkers were not :D

                Thanks for the invite but I'd rather remove my own eyes with a spoon.

                    Nah, forget what everyone is saying. VB6 is perfect and a great modern language to do this with. In fact, what you're asking for is such a common scenario, Microsoft put some of that functionality right into VB itself. It's hard to find documentation online for it, but just use the function CalcInsurancePercentByParcel in your routine. And make sure to tell your professor about it so he can tell the class.
