Hi,
Are you still trying to use Visual Web Developer Express 2005?
It looks like it to me, I can tell from the letters aspx.
ASP = Active Server Page and therefore it looks like you are still trying to build a windows FORM application with the wrong application.
If so STOP right now and download Visual Basic Express Edition 2005.
To do this click the following link please.>>

You have already said you are NOT trying to build a web application, so stop using
Visual Web Developer Express 2005 for what I am trying to show you, please, otherwise we won't be getting anywhere with this.
Can you invent some fictitious data instead?
- openingSharePrice
- closingTradePrice
- priceBought
- priceSold
- howManyShares
- percentProfit
- totalPercentProfit
and put some figures in for anInventedCompany Limited and how you intend to run the calculations?
Regards,
John
