Homework #4
CIS 166 – Validating Entries

This exercise expands the checking account application. Prepare materials that
describe the work to be performed. Copy your project files in a folder to the R: drive,
and turn in a printed copy of your code, your planning documents, and this sheet in
a folder. Make sure that your code includes comments. You may modify your earlier
homework or create a new project.

A transaction includes the following information: when the transaction occurred, the
amount of the transaction, the kind of transaction (deposit, withdrawal, service fee),
and whether the transaction has cleared the bank.
• The transaction amount should be tested to make sure it is a positive number.
• The transaction date should also be tested to be sure a date value has been
entered, and the date is on or before today.
• Each transaction must have a transaction type specified (deposit, service fee,
withdrawal).
• A withdrawal cannot cause the actual balance to be less than zero (a service fee
can result in a negative balance).

Two account balances need to be tracked: actual and processed (cleared). The
actual account balance changes when a new transaction is created IF all of the
requirements are met. The processed balance changes if all of the requirements are
met AND the transaction is marked as processed.

Create a form to capture transaction information and display account balances.


Choose controls to help the user enter information correctly. Include on your form:
• Add a listbox showing all transactions. When a new transaction is created, add
information about the transaction to the list box (date, amount, type of
transaction, and whether the transaction has been processed).
• A button to add a new transaction, display information in the listbox, and update
the account balances.
• A button to clear controls for entering a new transaction.
• A File Exit menu choice to exit the application.
