Visual basic problem, I need to calculate average and put the output in listbox but i'm having an error?
1. Write a program to compute semester averages. Each set of five lines in a text file should contain a student's social security number and the grades for three hourly exams and the final exam. (The final exam counts as two hourly exams.) the program should display each student's Social Security number and semester average, and then the class average. Use the data in Table : Students grades: http://i54.tinypic.com/2gya6j6.jpg[^]

and this is what i did:
Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = IO.File.OpenText("AVERAGE.TXT")
Dim SSN, Exam1, exam2, exam3, finalexam, average As Double
SSN = CDbl(sr.ReadLine)
Exam1 = CDbl(sr.ReadLine)
exam2 = CDbl(sr.ReadLine)
exam3 = CDbl(sr.ReadLine)
finalexam = CDbl(sr.ReadLine)
average = CDbl((Exam1 + exam2 + exam3 + finalexam + finalexam) / 5)
Dim fmtstr As String = "{0,-13} {1,6}"
With ListBox1.Items
.Clear()
.Add(String.Format(fmtstr, "Soc. Sec. No.", "Average"))
.Add(String.Format(fmtstr, SSN, average))
.Add(String.Format(fmtstr, SSN, average))
.Add(String.Format(fmtstr, SSN, average))
End With
End Sub
End Class



but every time i click on the button it's ending the program :(

When answering a question please:
  1. Read the question carefully.
  2. Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
  3. If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
