In this assignment, the previously completed project (CS4 Pay Calculator) will be enhanced to use If statements to valid the data entered, calculate overtime, and to determine the union dues based on the employee's membership. Radio Buttons will be used to allow the user to select their memberhship type. In addition, images will be added using Picture Boxes to enhance the appearance of the form :-).

Sample Form:
