Create properties for a dating agency application form to make it work

This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.

Before you can do this exercise, you'll need to download and unzip this file .

Press CTRL + D to add the file called frmOldies.vb from the above folder into your project (or right click on the project and choose to add it as an existing item).

Change your project's properties to make this the default form for your project. When you run your project, you should see this:

When someone clicks on the button shown, they should see their name, age and status (see below for how this is calculated) displayed back to them.

Add the following properties to your application:

Property	Type	Contains
PersonName	Read-only	The name of the applicant
Age	Read-only	The age of the applicant
Status	Read-only	Senior citizen if over 65; adult if over 18; child otherwise
IfEligible	Read-only	Whether this person can join (they must be over 65 to do so)

Attach the following code to the button on the form:

'print out details of this person (must reference

'System.Diagnostics namespace at top of code)

Debug.WriteLine("PROPERTY VALUES")

Debug.WriteLine(" ")

Debug.Indent()

Debug.WriteLine("Name = " + personName)

Debug.WriteLine("Age = " + age.ToString())

Debug.WriteLine("Status = " + status)

If IfEligible Then

Debug.WriteLine("Eligible")

Else

Debug.WriteLine("Not eligible")

End If

Debug.Unindent()

Here's what your output should look like when you enter a couple of people's details:

What you might see after two people at opposite ends of life have typed in their details.

Is the idea of an online dating agency for senior citizens a viable one?

You can unzip this file to see the answers to this exercise, although please remember this is for your personal use only.
