You wanna try that link again?

Huh. The caret worked, both A elements looked good, and I re-posted and now it seems OK.

Now it works.
OK, so it appears that bikers are going to fall face first into a massive pile of elephant sh*t. Is that what I'm reading?

Ah, you must be the optimist.

Link still does not work!

I don't think I ever saw a buffalo in Arizona, but quite a few buffalo hunters. It's a wonder that the sign has not been used for target practice by them yet. Fake!

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Typical directions in Arizona: Drive east on road xxx for five days and six hours, then look out for a sharp turn left. I really wonder how many were too busy with a telephone and did not see that turn coming. In that case a sign will not help very much.

Thanks for the warning! I was just about to jump on my bike and take a small trip from Stockholm to Phoenix...

Nice job putting the boulders in place so the highway dept had to put up a warning sign. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You have been invited to a project of designing a program that can compute the total cost of sending a parcel from Namibia to other African countries. You are told that the cost of sending parcels is N$2.00 per kilometer. You are also told that, in addition to the cost of sending parcels, customers can be charged the following optional charges:
• Insurance: 5% of total cost of sending a parcel.
• N$50.00 for sending parcel via express service or overnight service.
Write a program in vb 6.0 to enter distance to be send by customer form other African transport. The program must select sending parcel service and display the total charge of the parcel

Wrong forum. Wrong site in fact; we won't do your homework for you. Try rentacoder.

And if the destination is Nigeria, wait until they deposit the inheritance of a long lost relative into your bank account (after providing your personal and banking information) and then buy out the postal service and mail to every school a HughesNet satellite dish and a computer for every child so they can download Python from the internet BECAUSE NOBODY PROGRAMS IN VB6 ANYMORE except (and I kid you not) someone I know that has written some software that I have to interface with. I'm serious (about the last part.)

Well hang on, when I was in college (late-80s) we were subjected to Fortran and COBOL and I suppose VB6 is today's equivalent.
Still, I'd prefer Fortran or COBOL...

I actually had a coworker who was kind of on his own because he lived on the other side of the country.
He had his own customers and his own software.
Just once in a while did we need to work together with him on some stuff.
Back in 2014 he needed to make a new application for a customer, his language of choice? VB6!
A lot of his applications were still VB6 with some old pre-SQL database.
Yes, that was what the company once did, but they switched to VB.NET and SQL Server somewhere in 2005.
Mind you that this guy still wrote his VB.NET code like it was VB6.
Management had already let our customers know we won't support VB6 anymore starting from 2015.
I guess this guy did not get the memo (and he really had not learned anything new since 1990)
In his defense, he has worked for my parents for over 10 years and made them a lot of money because he did get things to work (eventually)
His customers were generally happy with his software, his coworkers were not

If you spent half the time and effort you have clearly put into finding an appropriate site to post your homework into actually trying to do trivial tasks like this, you would have finished it by now.
But then, you are learning an obsolete language - superseded by VB.NET in 2001, sixteen years ago - so I guess you have already made some pretty poor decisions, haven't you?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Nah, forget what everyone is saying. VB6 is perfect and a great modern language to do this with. In fact, what you're asking for is such a common scenario, Microsoft put some of that functionality right into VB itself. It's hard to find documentation online for it, but just use the function CalcInsurancePercentByParcel in your routine. And make sure to tell your professor about it so he can tell the class.

I'm a little pessimistic on this monolithic company these days. In fact, I might be a strong advocate of an air strike. Napalm, yeah, lots of it.
Silly me, I use Windows as a developer primarily. I (we?) are obviously outnumbered. MS has obsoleted or abandoned so many projects, my eyes waters and other things tighten.
So, the big push is on for Windows 10. Windows 10 is THE elephanting answer says the dweebs at MS. But, I'm happy with Windows 7. Really, I am. But I need a new laptop... if I want Windows 7, I can only buy a new old laptop. Hmmm... Okay, I'll go to windows 10... what can go wrong? I've run it in a VM, it's benign... right?
Elephanting wrong.
1) We've abandoned Windows Virtual PC. Surprise! 3 days later, I finally have it migrated to VMWare.
2) VS2008 and smart device development - nope, doesn't work any more, sorry about that...
(file copy to a WINDOWS ELEPHANTING SEVEN VM still going). Just like when you threw us under the bus with CE 6.0
3) If I get one more add suggestion from the GD desktop...
PS - it's better for consumers. Fair enough (maybe), but you've pissed off and alienated (almost typed analiated) so many developers at the hardware level. Go bloody piss-=off.

Label me a hater? Save the effort and send me the t-shirt. MS has done some good things, but the regular elephanting of their developer base - specific to mobile and embedded - nah, not worried.
