need help with a program...gremlinsa help again!!!

Hi, I need help with a program again. I am having trouble writing it.. here are the instructions..

The sun rises every morning and sets every night. There is a certain time during the day that is halfway in between called high noon. Your job is to write a program where you enter the times in minutes and hours for sunrise and sunset. Then you must determine when high noon is. Aumme that the data is correct, the form below shows how your data might look

sunrise am:

Sunset pm"

High noon is at.....
calculate


If someone can help me write this please let me knwo..!!!Gremlin Sa you helped me before if you see this please help again

I'll look into this one. Can you post the entry format and the output format IE Sunrise Time in HH:MM or HH in one textbox, MM in another??

The calculation would be 1/2 of Time diference + Sunrise time... do I assume right - Is it given ???..

Gremmy..

Yea the hours and minutes are in two seperate text boxes.. thank you so much.. ive been sittin here trying to do this for the past hour

Gremlin.. here is the form i was using...

Is my assumption about the Calculation correct.. or is it not given ???

Gremmy..

The calculation was not given, but the calculation you did for me was the same one i came upw ith also..

The example give was as follows

Sunrise (am) 7:08
Sunset (pm) 8:30

High noon is at 1:49 pm

(when calculated.)

Must the time be in Am/Pm format or can we use the 24 hour Clock ???

Gremmy..

AM/PM format... since the answer must say whether it is am or pm for the answer

Okay .. You Know the Drill .. Post what you got... And i will help you sort it out..

Gremmy..

Its not much, im really stuck on what to do, but here it is...

Do you have any idea on how to do this??? cause what you did for me last time was such a great help, i didnt hand in what you gave me, i changed the stuff so it was in my wording, but it worked out great.. I dont knwo how you are so good at this, but it is amazing because for you to be able to help me out like thsi you have no idea how much i appreciate it.

Give me a few minutes to work things out..

Post for you as soon as i have something..


Gremmy..

Ps.. I do know how to do this... Very simular code to the last one..

Is this right ??? I'm getting 2:49 PM in my calculations ???

Gremmy??

Yes its right...

Are you done already?

Sorry -- Me being an idiot... It is right.

Here is the project for you ....

I did it in my own form.. you can go through it and write your own in your form..

Enjoy....

Gremmy....

Gremmy, for some reason i cant open it, it is saying that i cant open it because it was made with a different visual basic program, can you post the form on here? so i can see it?

What ver. of VB are you Using.. I got VB6 Pro....

Try by Dbl clicking on form1 instead of project1 to open it ..

im using 6.0 but when i click on it, it says error during load... it wont let em open it or do anyhting with it.

in the corner where it says form, there is a little lock icon on the form

oK, I copied what you did over to my visual basic form, but it said invalid property array.. what shoudl i do about that?

i've re attached the form...

Try this one.

----Edit----
New attachement..
Form1.frx included....

Here's why you get that error:

Inputting values into a list from the IDE inserts the items into a Form1.frx file. That file isn't included, so the listboxes can't get the values, but the Form1.frm file itself references the Form1.frx file as to what is in the listbox.

Hence, the error, and hence the error message that comes on load, which says:

Line 32: Property ItemData in AM_PM had an invalid file reference.
Line 34: Property List in AM_PM had an invalid file reference.
Line 70: Property ItemData in AM_PM had an invalid file reference.
Line 72: Property List in AM_PM had an invalid file reference.
Line 80: Property ItemData in AM_PM had an invalid file reference.
Line 82: Property List in AM_PM had an invalid file reference.

If you look at Form1.frm in a plain text editor at those lines, you'll see references to Form1.frx:

Code:

---

'From Form1.frm
  Begin VB.ListBox AM_PM
      Enabled        =  0  'False
      Height          =  255
      Index          =  2
      ItemData        =  "Form1.frx":0000
      Left            =  1800
      List            =  "Form1.frx":0007
      TabIndex        =  9
      Top            =  1320
      Width          =  615
  End
'...

You'd have to open it through the project, or have Gremmy upload the FRX separately.

I don't get why it doesn't open for you. It did for me (VB6 Enterprise Edition).

But, in any case, you could just manually open the form by itself, then add AM and PM as list items in all three ListBoxes. That should get it working for you.

Gremmy needs to upload the FRX file.

Thanks Chaos.... :thumb:

added it to the upload..

Just thought I'd point out an easier way to do the calculation:

Code:

---

Private Sub HighNoon()

    Dim dRise As Date, dSet As Date, dNoon As Date

    dRise = CDate("7:08 AM")
    dSet = CDate("8:30 PM")
    dNoon = dRise + ((dSet - dRise) / 2)

    Debug.Print (dNoon)

End Sub
