    Anyone wanna do a visual basic assignment for money? It's not hard, just an entry level class so the assignment is pretty easy. I would prefer it done on Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, but I guess it doesn't matter. As for pay, I'll pay a good amount, something we can negotiate. Please PM me or post here ASAP (it's due tomorrow). Thanks.

    Ok here's the assignment (it looks like a lot of stuff but I assure you it's not):

    In this application, there is an input file of employee sales data and the program must
    read in the file and prepare two reports: one report is displayed on the form and the other
    report is written to an output file.
    The form for this application will allow the user to type in the name of both the input and
    output files. (While you are developing the program, you may want to disable this part to
    avoid typing in file names every time, but it is essential that the final version of the
    program allow the user to type in the input and output file names for grading purposes.
    That is, we are going to run your program on an input file that we have prepared.) The
    form needs
    • one button to perform the computation,
    • three multiline labels or textboxes to display employees as described below,
    • two more labels to display the number of male and female employees, and
    • a close button.
    The input file will have one employee’s data on each line, consisting of the employee
    name, the gender, the number of years of service and 6 monthly sales figures. The format
    of the each line will be like the following example
    Betty Boop, F, 2, 2000, 7000, 1500, 4000, 7500, 4200
    To test your application, make up an input file that has a number of employees. Please
    make sure that you have several people that fit each of the three categories for number of
    years of service, and for people who get bonuses or not.
    The button procedure should get the input and output file names from textboxes and
    should give an alert if there are not two file names given.
    The program then reads data from the input file and while it is doing so, it will:
    • Read all the employee data items on one line
    • Prepare three Strings that will be displayed in the three labels or textboxes, and
    • Save the employee name in one array and save the total sales in another
    • Add up the number of male and female employees
    The data displayed in the employee part of the form should have names and total sales of
    people with at least 10 years in the company to one multiline label or text box, with 5 to 9
    years experience in another label or text box, and with fewer that 5 years experience to a
    third label or text box.
    The number of male and female employees should also be displayed.
    The output file will give a report on total sales and employee bonuses calculated from the
    data in the arrays. It should be defined as follows:
    • There should be a first line that gives the name of the report
    • The next line should report the total number of sales for all employees
    • Skip two lines
    • Give a line of data for each employee consisting of
    o The employee name with the names reversed from First Name Last Name
    to Last Name, First Name.
    o The gender, written out as “Male” or “Female”
    o The total sales for that employee, starting in column 35
    o A bonus amount of $500 if the employee had total sales of over $20,000
    for the 6 month period.
    An example line in the output file would be:
    Boop, Betty Female $26,200 with bonus $500
    GRADING
    All programs should have comments that contain the name of the programmer and that
    explain the role of each procedure, including buttons. Additional comments must be
    added as necessary to explain the actions of the program. The form must have a Close
    button.
    The following additional items will be included in the grading
    • allow the user to specify file names and check for missing file names
    • read in the data properly from the input file
    • compute the total sales for each employee and display the three different
    categories
    • compute the number of males and females and display them
    • save employee names and sales into two arrays
    • compute the overall sales and write into the output file
    • correctly format each line of the output file, including reversing the names,
    aligning the columns and awarding bonuses based on the sales

    It definitely won't take long at all, but I'll pay a good amount if you're still interested.

    A competitive amount, honestly not sure exactly how long it would take so tell me what you think is fair and we can go from there.

    Payment has to be at least for 2-3 hours work, typical wage is what, 15?

    I am a computer science student, its real basic stuff, but its going to take awhile, and I have nothing on my computer to write that in.

    I'd do it, but I don't have Visual Studio.

    You can download a trial version off of microsoft.com but I am not sure if it will let you save or not?
