In this article, you will create an application in visual basic 6.0 with Microsoft access database as a back-end to manage customer transactions and bank employee details. This project is called bank management system in vb 6.0 using ms access.

The bank management system in vb 6.0 using ms access. must do the following tasks.

  • INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE records of Employees and Customers.
  • Keep track of customer transactions. A customer is allowed to withdraw and deposit money, not exceeding the balance in the account.
  • Bank employees only work for the branch with unique code.
  • Customer and Bank employee can log into there account with user id and password.

The system will be developed in following ways.

  • Develop System Design
  • Data Model [ E-R Diagram] 
  • User Interface in VB 6.0
  • Code the different Modules
  • Verify the Output

Tables

Using the E-R Diagram we can create a relational model of the database. It means we can create tables with the database. To create a new database go to the Microsoft Access Database and create a new blank database. If you have MS Access 2007 or Higher save the database with (.mdb) extension. Otherwise, Visual Basic 6 may not recognize the database file.

Create three four tables within the database with appropriate data-types given in the following figures.

Branch Table - Bank Management System
Branch Table – Bank Management System
Customer Table - Bank Management System
Customer Table – Bank Management System
Transaction Table - Bank Management System
Transaction Table – Bank Management System
Employee Table - Bank Management System
Employee Table – Bank Management System

frmMENU [ MDI Form ]

The MDI form is that form which has MENU and when you click on any one of the menu item, it opens up another MDI Child form.

We will set MDI Child property for following forms

  • frmBranch
  • frmCustomer
  • frmEmployee
  • frmTransaction 

Go to the property of each form and set the MDI Child to ‘True’.

Set MDI Child to True
Set MDI Child to True

Under Project 1 , [Right Click] the Forms > [Click] Add > [Click] MDI Form.

  Unload frmCustomer 
  Unload frmEmployee

Private Sub transaction_Click(Index As Integer) 
  frmTransaction.Show 
End Sub

Code for Module1.Bas

Most of the forms in the application need to connect to the database, so you may have to write code for connectivity with Microsoft Access Database repeatedly in each form.

Instead of writing the code for connectivity in each form, we write it once in a Module and call the function from the form. In this way, we save time to write the same code many times.

Here is the code for Module1.bas

Note; To know more about creating a new Module go to one of the previous Visual Basic 6 posts.

Public con As ADODB.Connection
  Public rs As ADODB.Recordset
  Public constr As String
  Public Sub loadcon() constr = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;
  Data Source=C:UsersGirishDocumentsStudentDB.mdb;Persist Security Info=False"
  con.Open constr
End Sub
