 Now we need to do the programming.  

When the user clicks EXIT we want to show the title form and hide the quote form:

FrmTitle.Show
FrmQuote.Hide

When the user hits the compute image, we want to calculate a quote and display it
 on the screen.  We are going to be using a new function called VAL

Syntax:     Val(stringexpression)

Remarks: 

The argument stringexpression is a sequence of characters that can be interpreted
 as a numeric value.  The Val function stops reading the string at the first character that it cannot recognize as part of a number.  Val also strips blanks, tabs, and line feeds from the argument string.  For example, the following returns the value 1615198:

Val("    1615 198th Street N.E.")

For the ImgCompute_Click: code:

LblSub.Caption = Val(lblbase.caption) + val(lblPkg.Caption) +
			-Val(TxtTrade.Text)

LblStax.Caption = Val(LblSub.Caption) * .05

LblTotal.Caption = Val(LblSub.Caption) + Val(LblStax.Caption)


If the user selects the print image, we want to print the form:

	PrintForm

When the user selects an option box for a base model, we need to set the default prices:

Lblbase.Caption = 15500  (if Comet if clicked)
Lblbase.Caption = 21000       (if Orbit is clicked)
Lblbase.Caption = 10500      (if Star is clicked)


When the user selects an option box for a base model, we need to set the default prices:

LblPkg.Caption = 2000 (if standard dealer package is selected)
LblPkg.Caption = 3000 (If deluxe dealer package is selected)

Finally, in order for your printform to work properly, we might need to set the height
and width of the form object in a load event.  The unit of measure is
 called a twip.  There are 1440 twips in one inch.


Height = 15840
Width = 12240
