14. In the form’s Load event, display the login form modally.
15. In the Click event of the btnAddToBasket button, create
a GroceryItem object using the values from the controls
and add it to the basket variable. Remember the basket
variable is the GroceryBasket collection.
a. Make sure all controls except txtScanNumber contain
a value.
b. Set the value of the txtScanNumber control using the
following code:
txtScanNumber.Text = _
txtBrandName.Text.Substring(0, 3) & “1019”
c. Instantiate the GroceryItem class, using the control
values.
d. Use the following expression to set the Aisle property
[Enum].Parse(GetType(Aisle), lstAisle.Text)

enumeration.

f. Make sure to clear the content of all controls.
16. In the Click event of the Exit menu item, end the application.
17. Have the btnAddToBasket_Click method handle the
Click event of AddToolStripMenuItem as well.
18. In the Click event of the View menu item, display all of
the items in the basket variable in an informational message
box. You need only display the Aisle, ScanNumber,
and BrandName properties. See Assignment 9 for help.

19. Set GroceryItemForm as the startup form.
20. Save and run the application. Verify that all controls and
menus work correctly. You must provide a valid username
and password to access the main form.
21. Make sure to test your work fully before submitting your
project.
Note: If you close the Login form, you don’t need to perform
the login process. This is by design, so that you can test the
application without logging on.
