Good news for a bad task

Currently writing up a data-handling form for the conservation authority.  It is simply a quick way for them to input species data into the system.  Unfortunately, my knowledge of the language is currently still rather rudimentary, to the point that any program I produced now would be bloody crude and verbose as all get out.  I have worked on the GUI up to this point and I will continue to do so in the hopes of learning more useful tidbits from the prof before I get down to the coding.  I know how to do it as a programmer in general, I just need to figure out the syntax/commands for VB.

Oh, there are a hell of a lot of insects which are used as water quality indicators.  83 different families from 17 orders to be precise.  Damn.  I crash now.
