This is the first part of the code and this works fine; it has already created the "hardwood file" that will hold the values for the Wood that a person would enter in. So what the program will do in the hardwood is : the cashier will enter in the Thickness, Width, Length and that will output the "Boardfoot" and the price will also be input and it will output the price that the person inputs. So I think that the price that is input will be multiplied by the measurements; and that should give you the totalprice; and the totalprice should print out on a ticket(Reciept). I hope I explained this well.
Thanks Valmont
