Well pretty much like i always do i went to Sports Illustrated.com and read about football and other sports. I read how the Eagles killed the Lions and how Mccnabb is still good. I read of how the Redskins lost and wasted a 1 hour and a half of my day yesterday. In college football West Virginia needs to keep doing good and kill all teams with patrick white and steve slaton.

Are there any specific tips you would give to some one tackling the same problem?
if i were to tell someone some tips i would say to use copy and paste. Since in the smiley problem all of them were repetetive and all you had to do was change a few things. It was a lot faster and easier to do and thats why you should use copy and paste.
What progress did you make on your solution?
I started the Smiley project which was hard to do. Next class i need to finish it and firgure out how to get it to work. I also finished my excercises.

H ow did you go about testing your program? What was the result of testing?

After we made the code we tested it by pushing the green button to run it to see if it worked. The result was sometimes it work and if it didnt then I would try to fix it. Visual Basic seems pretty easy because they tell you what you did wrong so you can fix it yourself.

Are there any specific tips you would give to someone tackling the same problem?

If you are trying out a thing on the toolbox you can remember that most of the properties are the same. Like font and back image all of them do the same thing so you can learn from that.

Thanks! You succeeded in adding me!
What progress did you make today on your solution? What needs to be completed next class?

I tried to find out how to use visual basic by putting buttons and checkboxes on it and playing with the properties.
I tried to find ou what each property did and then wrote the ones that did something. I remeber that i took a little course in the summer so I kind of remeber it. Tommorow I need to try out all of the things on and trying the rest of the property.
