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.

Hi. thanks for that. okay, will take that on board for future reference. thanks. ps: now, can you help with the function calls, i am having problems with? if so, i can resend the code again if necessary. cheers Marvin.----- Original Message ----- From: "Ricks Place" <OFBGMail@xxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, September 28, 2008 10:24 PM Subject: Re: VB.DOT NET Maths Question Marv: You have to slow down and think about what you are asking. You are not asking anything that makes sense. I only know this from working on the project. If someone else read this they would just ignore it.You should craft your questions carefully perhaps in a text editor and sendit when you are sure your facts are correct. See below:now the project is to calculate the investment, the interest rate and numberof years. Marv, the above is not correct. You do not want to calculate the investment, interest rate and number of years. That is what you said and it is nonsense. You want to calculate theFuture Value of the investment given a Investment Amount, Interest Rate andthe Number of years. and the calculation is: future value = investment amount (interest rate + 1) ^years The above is good. so i thought the way to calculate that was: future value = investment * interest rate * years. is that right. The above is a valid question. Your formula is incorrect, you had it right before when we worked on the project, but your question is much better for others to give you a response. They look at the original calculation andtell you to use parenthsis and that you did not raise the necessary value to the exponential number of years. But the question is better. You really needto drop the project description, tell them the inputs and outputs ifnecessary for the calculation as it is here and then show them the originalcalculation from the book as you did, and your code solution as you did.
