    HI.
okay, sorry for that.
when i try to compile vb.net , i get a declaration error, and it starts just 
inside the public class, and the first set of function calls.
say for example:


Private Function FindAverage(ByVal GameOneInteger, _
ByValGameTwoInteger, ByValGameThreeInteger as Integer) as Decimal
that is the first line where the problem is:
any ideas?
cheers Marvin.

Marv:
I have no clue to what they are. I do not have, nor want,  the book nor the
project description, nor your code and would not look at a bunch of function
calls without having you craft a specific question.
You say they are not working. First, exactly what do you mean by not
working? Are you getting a syntax error, are the outputs incorrect is
anything at all happening? I have no way to answer this question with the
information you put in this e-mail. I don't even know what to ask you to try
and help. You have to craft your questions to a narrow topic, provide the
relevant code, just the relevant code, and then I can look at it and either
give you an answer or ask you for more information about the problem.
