Hey, I've never done any programming in my life and would greatly appreciate some help 
I have to create a windows application where there are 3 text boxes in which you enter assignment scores (numerical) and then click on a button that adds the 3 scores together and displays the total in a label on the same application. When you click the button it also has to give a grade in another label underneath the 'totalscorelabel', such as 'High distinction' if the scores above 20 or so.... I know the second part uses an ifstatement except im not quite sure how to use them... 
Thank you so much for any help!
Hey Guys, Sorry for not being very specific... I figured out the addition code just before your post Jx_Man...But thank you still. I had it almost right, i just didn't have 'val' before each textbox... I'm having trouble with the If statements because theres multiple conditions:
Fail:
Awarded to any student who scores either
-a total score less than 15
- less than 5 in two or more assignments
o High Distinction:
Awarded to any student who has both
- A total score greater or equal to than 23
-Not scored less than 5 in any assignment
o Pass:
- Anyone who has not scored a Fail or High Distinction
Heres what i have in my disasterous If Statement:
NOTE: label6 = Total Label7 = Result
If Label6.Text >= 23 And TextBox1.Text Or TextBox2.Text Or TextBox3.Text = 5< Then Label7.Text = "High Distinction"
Else If Label6.Text 15< Or 'Less than five in two assignments --> Have no idea!!!'
Then Label7.Text = "Fail"
Else If Label7.Text = "Pass"
