Visual Basic™ Framework

Software Eng. : Enhanced Payroll Program

How to create a prototype using Visual Basic

First of all, you have to record Start Time: _____________

Follow these steps for a straightforward way to create an enhanced payroll program: (These steps are also listed in the index.)

Drawing the form and setting the properties.

After finishing the initial steps, record Quarter Completion Time: _____________

2. Specify the start-up code for the form so that Visual Basic will know what you want the window to be initialised when this form is started.

At this check point, record Semi Completion Time: _____________

3. Write event procedures to transfer value from one object to another object.

At this check point, record 2nd Quarter Completion Time: _____________

4. Complete your program like any other Visual Basic applications by adding a start-up page to the program.

	With employee Mr. Raja’s Overtime = 50, Mr. Raja’s amount of Pay Cheque : _____________
	Congratulations! Record End Time: _____________

The links above have an example running through them. You can work through the example to get experience on prototyping an enhanced payroll program using Visual Basic.

What next?

Try to make the program more robust by putting in more error checks in the codes, so that you will understand how to create a better prototype for enhanced Payroll Program using Visual Basic objects.
