bal = bal + amt
txtbalance.Text = bal

End If

re:
Better You can Use Double
i.e
Dim bal, amt as Double

Because amount are having decimal values.
like 0.00

and also change database Datatype to money or float(in sqlserver2000)

You can Use Double

Dim bal, amt as Double ' like 0.00

If you are using MS Access Database not need to change Currency Datatype
or using SQL Server 2000 in database change Datatype to money or float.
