Unhappy Roman To Arabic And Vice Versa !

Okay i know this is lame for all of u programers but for startes like myself,
I've done a pretty ugly jobe at this, but its working and all, just a few things
that i can't get right, anyways if anyone is able to do this for me, i'll
appreciate it alot !!

here is the thing...

================================================== =======

Roman numerals are still used for certain limited purposes such as copyright dates.
The symbols used are I=1, V=5, X=10, C=100, D=500 & M=1000


One definition of roman numbers is
  • The letters must be in descending order of value,
  • The value of the number is the sum of all the letters,
  • Each letter must be used a minimum number of times.

This is known as the additive rule & is the only rule to be used in this question.



For example



MCX = 1000 + 100 + 10 = 1110;

MXC is invalid because of wrong order;

IIII = 1 + 1 + 1 +1 = 4;

IIIII is invalid because it can be replaced with V.



A manufacturer wishes to make a new calculator that allows a user to input a number
using roman numerals & displays the number in both Roman & Arabic forms.


The calculator must
  • Allow a user to enter the roman numerals up to a value of 7000 (MMMMMMM),
  • Prevent the user entering an invalid numeral,
  • Display the number entered using roman numerals,
  • Update this display as each roman numeral is entered,
  • Display the number entered using Arabic numerals,
  • Update this display as each roman numeral is entered,
  • Allow the user to clear both displays, the roman number& the Arabic number.
================================================== =======

well if anyone can help me with this, i'll be thankful !
but if its too hard or something then never mind i dont want to take much of ur time..
if someone is kindly to do this for me, then i beg of u send me the vbs file !!
this would help me alot...
thanks
cheers..
