what is the visual basic 6.0 code for creating a library system database program?





this is our project in our school and its very hard to create it help me expert visual basic programmers..............

What is the visual basic 6.0 code for creating a library system database program?
Lets start with the words of Fred Brooks here: "Show me your flow charts and conceal your tables and I shall continue to be mystified, show me your tables and I won't usually need your flow charts; they'll be obvious."





What he means is that you first need to design the database tables (most likely in Access so you can use the VB libraries to easily get to them). To give you a head start on this think about the objects in a library: books, people (the one with library cards), a record of "checked-out items." Depending on what grade this is for you might be able to get away with these three tables. I will leave the columns in the table up to you.





Once you have these tables setup then your maintenance screens should be obvious. Take each item and ask, what do I need on the screen to create it, display it, update it and delete it. You might also need some reports but I don't really have the details of your assignment.





Very rarely does a high school teacher give out an assignment without teaching you what you need to do it. Given the time frame of your question (like the beginning of the year) you might want to sit back and see what he/she has to teach you before you jump into this huge assignment.
Reply:using ado would probally be easiest, then you could use an msAccess database which you can manipulate manully or from your program...
Reply:If you want to create "Library Software" (to manage a School Library or Book Lending Library) you can search on the net for open source projects.
Reply:you cannot create with visual basic a dynamic library.. only ActiveX dll (with the appropriate template)
