Hi @NasaCow
OK 'vs GUI' was not meant to work with another system like Terry's Menu stuff. It needs exclusive control on Mouse and Keypresses to direct to proper controls event.
I would love to help with this project and I think whatever you can do with a Menu you can also do with buttons just not so fancy and compact. There is only a question of having enough room. Thing is list boxes might not be best control to use.
Or maybe you can do the whole thing with Terry's Menu stuff?
Break down tasks into individual projects that can be done on a single screen, call those screen-fulls from menu, return to menu when done.
Something tells me you want a spreadsheet application just from the little I saw of what was started and my glances of gradebooks in past.
ie each name is a row and columns for tests, working in a grid of cells.
What are files needed? Class Lists and a bunch of Test Results List for each test for each student = 1 column of a grade book.
I will think about this, on a database basis... I see a data entry thing needed for each test working from a class list.
Honestly maybe the fastest way to a gradebook app is an Excel or other spreadsheet, check Libre Office if not M$.
Hey @TerryRitchie you have taught classes if I recall, did you use a gradebook app of your own?
