Hi,

i am having a problem in vb.
The basic program is that i have a label with a name of something in it. next i have a command button which everytime u press it add 1 to the quantity ordered. on the right i have a textbox.

I want to display the text from with in the labe followed by " x " and then the amount ordered.

I can diplay the amount easily but it will not display the text from the label in the textbox. any ideas??

Thanks

put the text box on top of the label if you want it IN the label area.

what you'll need to do is this:


Option Explicit
Dim amount As Integer

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Text1 = ""
amount = amount + 1
Text1.Text = Label1 & " x " & (amount)
End Sub

Thanks for that. I kept on trying to display the value of the label!!

Another question;

when i am producing the reults in a textbox on the right of the screen, i want a seperate line for each. For example, there are 3 command buttons and everytime you click them i want the textbox on the right to display the name and quantity ordered. However, when i do it, the 1st works fine but after that it just writes over the text!!

why don't you use a picture box for that? Makes it a hell of a lot easier than trying to use a text box (which can be edited by the user when there's text in it).

then have the code be:


picOutput.Print Label1 & " x " & amount
picOutput.Print Label2 & " x " & amount2
picOutput.Print Label3 & " x " & amount3

you'll need to put them in their corresponding command button's sub routine.
