    Base converter

    I wanted to write a program in Vb.Net. So that the program ask user to input a number and the bases(2, 8 or 16), If the user enter awrong base then program ask for the correct base again, wich is ( base 2 or 8 or 16). And then the program will convert the nuber to the entered base. So can any one help me to write this using graphical user interface. I am very new to this language, if i can get any help I will appriciate that. Thank you all.....

    I realise that you state that you are new but this seems like a lot to ask , why not find a book or online tutorial for VB?

    once you have your program I have no issues with trying to help you with problems or faults but here you do not seem to have tried.

    sorry if this seems harsh but it does not seem fair to ask questions in this way and although it expands my vb knowledge it does not do much for you

      Yes, like jg007 says, this is far too broad of a question for this forum. It really depends on your knowledge of the language and logic involved. If you aren't familiar with making GUI apps with VB.NET, you should find a good beginner's tutorial. If that's not the problem, then you need to work out the logic. Logic is rarely language-dependent. Map out in pseudo-code how you plan to carry out this program. Then, give it a shot. If that doesn't work, post the code, and we'll do what we can to help you out.

      We're all more than happy to help, but the forum does have rules. Please read the Posting Guidelines.

        Thanks people. I thought really there wont be any one to just say any thing. But as you said. I know to do some parts but, the things that I don't really understand is how to make the program to recognise the bases when I enter a number like 2 for binary 8 for octaal and 16 for hex.And the real problem here is I don't have much time for reserch. But as you said, next time I'll post after doing it somehow. thanx for all your answers.....
