Hi there everyone,
Hoping eveyone is alright!
I just got built this simple database program. Things were quite fine not until
I reached a point where i couldn't read the records in my little database. I
have tried to figure out where I could have gone wrong but I don't seem to get
anywhere. Can you guys help me out please.
I was also trying to test input by a user for different criteria i.e, whether
input is a digit, alpha, within a specific range, but came short on realising
that i couldn't utilise the if construct(remember that an when one statement
evaluates to true in an if construct, it will terminate) to effectively display
different messages related to what has been captured from a user. Can someone
take me through this too so I can test user input effectively. Many thanks in advance
