Private Sub cmdFirst_Click()
    Adodc1.Recordset.MoveFirst
End Sub
Private Sub cmdPrev_Click()
    Adodc1.Recordset.MovePrevious
    If Adodc1.Recordset.BOF Then Adodc1.Recordset.MoveFirst
End Sub
Private Sub cmdNext_Click()
    Adodc1.Recordset.MoveNext
    If Adodc1.Recordset.EOF Then Adodc1.Recordset.MoveLast
End Sub
Private Sub cmdLast_Click()
    Adodc1.Recordset.MoveLast
End Sub

Learning Outcome: Basic database connection, Recordset navigation (BOF/EOF).

Objective: Generate a multiplication table for a number entered by the user. Controls Needed: 1 TextBox (txtNum), 1 CommandButton (cmdGen), 1 ListBox (List1). Setup Steps:

Code:

Private Sub cmdGen_Click()
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim num As Integer
    Dim result As String
List1.Clear ' Clear previous entries
    num = Val(txtNum.Text)
For i = 1 To 10
        result = num & " x " & i & " = " & (num * i)
        List1.AddItem result
    Next i
End Sub

Learning Outcome: Using For loops and populating ListBox controls.
