Make Calculator In Ms Access With VBA

 It is possible to create a calculator in Microsoft Access using VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) programming language. Here is a basic outline of how to do it:

1. Open Microsoft Access and create a new blank database.

2. Click on the "Create" tab in the ribbon, then click on the "Module" button in the "Macro & Code" group to open a new VBA module.

3. In the VBA editor, write the code for your calculator. You will need to create variables to store the values entered by the user, and use these variables in mathematical expressions to perform the calculations. You can use the standard arithmetic operators (e.g. +, -, *, /) to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

4. To create the user interface for your calculator, you can use the "Form" tool in the "Forms" group on the "Create" tab. This will allow you to design a form with text boxes, buttons, and other controls that the user can interact with.

5. In the form, you can use the "Controls" group on the "Design" tab to add text boxes for the user to enter their values, and buttons for the user to perform the calculations. You can then use the "Property Sheet" to set the properties of these controls, such as the name and the default value.

6. To make the buttons perform the calculations, you can use the "Event" property in the property sheet to specify which VBA code should be executed when the user clicks on a button. For example, you can use the "On Click" event to run a VBA subroutine that
   
   

   To create a calculator in Microsoft Access using VBA, you can use the following steps:

   1. Open Microsoft Access and create a new blank database.

   2. In the database, create a new form by going to the "Create" tab and selecting "Form" from the "Forms" group.

   3. In the form, add the following controls:

   • Two text boxes for the user to enter the values to be calculated.
   • A combo box for the user to select the operation to be performed (e.g. addition, subtraction, multiplication, division).
   • A button to initiate the calculation.
   • A label to display the result.

   4. Next, double-click on the button to open the VBA editor.

   5. In the VBA editor, add the following code to the button's click event:
      
      
      

    Private Sub Command0_Click()

       Dim value1 As Double

       Dim value2 As Double

       Dim result As Double

       

       value1 = CDbl(Me.Text0.Value)

       value2 = CDbl(Me.Text1.Value)

       

       Select Case Me.Combo0.Value

           Case "Addition"

               result = value1 + value2

           Case "Subtraction"

               result = value1 - value2

           Case "Multiplication"

               result = value1 * value2

           Case "Division"

               result = value1 / value2

       End Select

       

       Me.Label0.Caption = result

   End Sub
   
   
   

   6. Save the form and close the VBA editor.

   7. You can now test your calculator by entering values in the text boxes, selecting an operation from the combo box, and clicking the button. The result should be displayed in the label.
