Can someone please help me. I have written two programs. The first programs will run up to the rows of info then it will put in end for the name and the end total and not each number then a total. I've been working on this for a week. Please help

'***********Program Mainline***********

CLS
GOSUB InitializeImages
GOSUB ProcessDetail
END

'**********Initialize Print Images******

InitializeImages:
LET T1$ = " Recording Studio Rent Charges"
LET H1$ = " Group Name Mintues Used Charges"
LET D1$ = " \ \ #### $#,###.##"
LET TL$ = " "
RETURN

'*********Process Detil*******************

ProcessDetail:
CLS
PRINT TAB(25); "Recording Studio Rent Charges"
GOSUB InputData
DO UNTIL UCASE$(Name$) = "END"
GOSUB inputMinutes
GOSUB CalculateCharge
PRINT
GOSUB InputData
LOOP
GOSUB PrintTitleAndHeader
GOSUB Summarize
GOSUB PrintOutput

InputData:

INPUT "Name of group (END to Quit)"; Name$
RETURN

'********Input Minutes***************

inputMinutes:

INPUT "Enter Minutes used"; Minutes
RETURN

'*********CalculateCharge*************

CalculateCharge:
LET hourrate = 200
LET Rate = (hourrate / 60) * Minutes
LET Charge = INT(Rate * 100 + .5) / 100
PRINT
LET TotalMinutes = TotalMinutes + Minutes
LET TotalCharge = TotalCharge + Charge

RETURN

Summarize:
PRINT USING D1$; Name$; Minutes; TotalCharge
RETURN

'*********PrintTitleAndHeader**********

PRINT H1$

RETURN

'*********Print Output********************

PrintOutput:
PRINT



PRINT "Total Charge for All Groups"; TotalCharge;



RETURN

One comment about the code i posted. If you use 10 or more
items you will have to dimension the arrays before using so it
would be a good idea to dim them anyway
DIM charges(100),name$(100),minutes(100),rate(100)

for example at the beginning of the program.

one other comment. the CLS just before InputData: will NEVER be accessed. Therefore it is unnecessary there.

Actually, it IS accessed, as soon as the program starts, as the first command.

Personally, I use the CLS command at the beginning of my programs, just to be sure the screen is clean when the program runs. This is especially helpful when you are troubleshooting, and want to know what each run of the program actually accomplishes. Or, if you must run the program more than once.
