    Thanks for the help ireland =D.

    Now on to the VB...the task is as follows:

    Highland Airline requires software to help manage its on-line nooking system. Previously registered passengers will be able to log on using a valid ID and book a seat on the flight.

    You are asked to produce a trial version of the software operating with one flight and 5 seats. The trial version will assume that 5 passengers have already registered their IDs.

    HOW THE PROGRAM SHOULD WORK:

    Store Flight Details

    5 passengers IDs should be stored in a suitable data structure. You may use any suitable method available in your programming environment to achieve this. The program should also store the flight number.
    The IDs and flight number are given in the test data below.

    TEST DATA

    Flight Number: HA468

    IDs : WallaceW468P01
    LauderH468P02
    CarnegieA468P03
    ScottW468P04
    DeBruisR468P05

    The software should then ask for and check an ID, book a seat and display the booking details for each of the 5 passengers. These processes are described in more detail below.

    ENTER AND CHECK IDs

    The software should ask for the passenger's ID and check that it is on the stored list before allowing the passenger to book a seat. If it is not on the list, a suitable error message should be displayed and the passenger asked to re-enter their ID.

    BOOK A SEAT
    The software should request that the passenger selects a seat numbered from 1 to 5. if a passenger selects a seat which is already booked an error message should be displayed and the passenger asked to make another seat selection. This process should continue until an available seat is selected.

    DISPLAY BOOKING DETAILS

    The software should display the booking details as follows:

    Booking Confirmation
    Filght Number HA468
    ID CarnegieA468P03
    Name CarnegieA
    Seat Number 4


    NOTE: The name is derived from the ID by the program automatically removing the last 6 characters of the ID.


    ALGORITHM
    1. Store flight details
    2.Loop for all passengers
    3. Enter and check ID
    4. Book a seat
    5. Display Booking
    6 End Loop


    USE : separate sub-programs where appropriate.
    parameter passing where appropriate.

    If you could help with this program that would be great. If there is anything that you need to know about the task just ask.

    thanks for the help.

    Well, from the way you formulated this, it looks like this came from a VB textbook, which leads me to believe you are in first year uni or late highschool.
    Which would mean you should learn how to do this yourself by consulting the book and how to code it, rather than having someone write it for you.

    I won't do it.
    If it was a C language i could understand you'd want some help, cause those are hard, but VB is made with ease of use in mind, and with all the windows VB GUI making a VB application is just as easy as creating a website with macromedia dreamweaver, I.E. a child could do it with some guidance.
    Besides, you're in school to learn sh*t, not to piss off your teachers.
    So stop being lazy and figure it out.

    Still won't do it.
    You got yourself into this, so get yourself out of it.
