Hi

I think this is how i would write it:

Dim customer As String
Dim TOTAL, parts, labor As Double

        labor = CDbl(Txthour.Text * 35)
        parts = CDbl(Txtpart.Text + 5)
        Total = labor + parts
        customer = txtname.text
        lstResult.Items.Clear()
        lstResult.Items.add("customer" & customer)
        lstResult.Items.add("Labor cost" & labor)
        lstResult.Items.add("Parts Cost" & Parts)
        lstResult.Items.add(" Total Cost" & Total)

I think the variables: Total,Parts and Labor should be Double type.
A string type would concatenate the values Labor + Parts instead of adding them.

Also you cant add and clear a listitem in the same command.
lstResult.Items.Clear()
I hope this helps.
