My boyfriend (he does not attend State) is writing a program for a Computer Science class and is having a hell of time trying to get something to work. He is willing to pay whomever helps him out (will have to be able to do it over the phone, he does not live in Raleigh area).

He is using: VisualBasic Studio 2005

Right now he has his program for the log-in screen to allow users to input their user name and password. He has additionally created a databank in Access with authorized users, but is having trouble getting the two to sync up.

Ultimate Goal: when user logs in they can access main page with the information they are authorized to access.



If you are willing to help him out, please PM me. Thanks!

I highly suggest Google, for starters...the above link, which I found in less than 30 seconds, should be enough to explain simple DB queries to MS Access. There's dozens of other sites that show exactly how this can be accomplished. He's either not looked very hard, or not at all.

^what he said.

Google has been my best friend whenever i'm stuck on something. And whenever it doesn't return a solution it at least points me in the right direction to figure out a solution for myself.

I am not sure what he has done to trouble shoot. He just called and asked if I knew anyone that could help him out and I figured that someone on TWW might be willing to help.

i think the problem is he's using a databank as well

With this sort of programming expertise this guy should definitely be our next hire in state government... it would only be better if he was 58 and talked incessantly about COBOL, Clark Howard, and UNC basketball.

I tutored some business students here at NCSU in VS 2005 for $20/hr. Been using Visual Basic / Visual Studio for a decade now. But there's no way I can help from here, sorry.
