You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.
If you haven't already done so in this project, create a data source for the Mortgage Access database in the folder shown above.
Create a form called frmApplicant, and within this create a DataGridView to show mortgage applicants from the Person table:
The DataGridView, with an alternate row style
Add validation such that when the user enters an invalid amount the application displays an error message, and the user can not leave the cell without correcting the error:
LOTS is not a valid amount!
If you have time, add code to display a suitable value for the ErrorText property of the current row if the mortgage type id is not an integer between 1 and 5:
should appear if you enter a mortgage type id of 7, for example, as here
Pat yourself on the back, and close down any open forms.
