As a last resource you can look at www . HelpMeCheatAndGetADiplomaWithoutKnowingTheMaterial . com

The correct place to start is at the beginning. What book are you using for your course of study? What chapeters have you already covered?

Did you type in all of the code samples? (and use the debugger to watch how each statement works?)

Surely, the would have alaready covered:

1) Creating a Project
2) Creating a Form
3) Putting a Control on a Form

TheCPUWizard gave you a great hint and; concisly it means:

you can not always cheat to do something. walk before run. no body will help you to walk but when you are walking or running and falling down then a lot of people will help you to stand again.

you need at most one week (1-2 hours per day) to investigate and read a book to solve your problem.

don't expect many people come and push your car it would be easier for all that you first start the engine.

You could use the MaskedTextBox class:

Masks examples are here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...tbox.mask.aspx

You could frame with button logic that does the * 5 and will NOT do it more than once.

This will allow you to limit the max size of the number as well, if that is a requirement.

Please do try to do some research as well next time. I have no idea if you tried or not and if this is homework or not. So , I won't do this twice for you
