Thank God it's upgraded a bit and they have some great tools that you can just drag and drop. Makes it easier to create an interface design.

Well I don't know much about the coding system. I've done the interface but I have no clue about the coding now.

I have to create a 'music studio' program to keep track of how many musicians use the studio each day. Track the Group Name and the time (in minutes) they use the studio. Must use an object to track the information about the Bands. Allow the user to calculate the group charges for studio use. Keep track of how many groups have used the studio today, the total income and the average income per group.

Use the Timer for that purpose....You may also need a SQL background if you want to keep all this record... anyways
Drag the Timer it will be invisible so it wont appear on the interface. Have durations set to where ur timer is fired adn logs time... or even better log the login time i think its call "Date" or "Todays Date" or something like that ...and then on the click event of log out, before u logout, log the time again.. Caluclate the two times and find the difference. This will be the number of hours ur studio is used for. Multiply that with however much you charge ..save it to the database as well.. have it printed ..and also display on another form on the screen :)
In your database, u can have ur band names as primary keys assuming they wont be redundant or just use a number. With their fileds being updated by the software everytime the bands use them, Simple query will add up the total ..avg... ext for you just specify the field names in ur query... U r done..

BTW do u own a studio or do you work there? :)

Is this for a class project? You can always use M$ Access for that project. Or for some free stuff use php with a mysql backend.
