I''m new to coding and I need to for a project by friday. I really appreciate those who are willing to help.

Basically its something like this.

Potato chips + - 2

The number is the quantity. There will be a submit button which updates everything to the database.

Is something simple like this possible?

Yes it is possible.

Yes, I suspect that anything you create by Friday will be a POS.

"Is something simple like this possible?"

Yes.
Exactly how depends on you - we do not do your homework: it is set for a reason. It is there so that you think about what you have been told, and try to understand it. It is also there so that your tutor can identify areas where you are weak, and focus more attention on remedial action.

Try it yourself, you may find it is not as difficult as you think!

If you meet a specific problem, then please ask about that and we will do our best to help. But we aren't going to do it all for you!

So give it a try, and if you get into difficulties, show us what you have done, and explain what is stopping you moving on.

Because I'm new to coding. First thing first, am I suppose to use a gridview of this? If so, how do I place a button in gridview.

OriginalGriff 6-Jul-15 6:42am

If you don't know how to do something, start with google:
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=button+in+gridview&oq=button+in+gridview&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.6794j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8

That searches "button in gridview" which gives answers like:

"Using Button columns in GridView"

"Adding button fields to a GridView control"

"Adding and Responding to Buttons to a GridView (VB)"

Read a few links, and refine your question to Google to try and get a more precise answer. When you finish, you'll either know how to do it, or you will will have a much more precise "how do I do this?" question to ask us. (It's called "research" and it's an important skill - and a lot faster than asking others and hoping they respond in time)
But general questions indicate you haven't tried to do anything towards your homework, and that never works here!
