my friend and i are making a programmable calculator that is 100 percent programmable. all the ones on the market suck, so we are making this one. what we have done:
made a form that dynamically increases the number of textboxes according to the number within the database. we are totaly stumped on one thing. the only thing we have left to do is:
come up with a way to input the equation into the database so that will allow us to recall it when the equation is needed.
initially, we were adding an equation one variable and function (plus minus divide multiply) at a time into one field of the database at a time. I figured we could use "if" and "then" statements to make it work. BUT, my partner thinks thats a bad idea. can you help? i also think we could:
input the entire equation into the database as a string.... then when it is pulled out of the database, we could manipulate the string into seperate charactors and from there input each charactor into its corresponding labels and text boxes.
i just need info on the best method to use. and maybe some assistance with the code. I am a VB6 junky, and am very new to B4A. any assistance would be great
thank you
