Subject: Using selection in your visual basic program
Comments:
I just started to learn vb6.0.
I have to write a simple program where, the user type in their age and depending
on their age a message appears. Either saying "time to retire" if you
are older than 65, or keep on working if your age is below 65.
I'm getting stuck on how you code the if and else statement.
This is what I have done so far.
private sub cmdmessage_click()
Dim age as integer
if age >65 then
txtage.text="time to retire"
else
txtage.text="keep on working"
end if
end sub
My code above don't seem to work because any number i press it display keep
on working.
Could you please help me?
Thanks.

After you declare the variable using the 'Dim' statement, you need to give the variable a value. After the second line, insert the following code:
| age = txtNumber.Text |
Where txtNumber is the name of the textbox where the user enters the number. If you do not put this line in, the program will not know what the value of the 'age' variable is.
