6.0 System Coding (Prototype)

In the development of Barangay Information System, a programming language
and special purpose language is needed for the system to work regarding to its purpose
and use.
In software development, a prototype is a basic part of working model of a
product or information system, usually built for demonstration purposes or as part of the
development process. Before creating the full software needed, a prototype is built in
order to demonstrate what the software is basically about.

6.1 Programming Language

In the creation of Barangay Information System, the developers need a
programming language and database for the software requirements of the system.
Example of these codes are shown below:

Frmswitchboard: cmdregister : onclick

Action: OpenForm
Argument: frmTable1; Form; ; ; ; Normal

Frmswitchboard: cmdreport : onclick

Action: OpenForm
Argument: Report1; Form; ; ; ; Normal

Frmswitchboard: cmdexit : onclick

Action: Quit
Argument: Prompt

Private Sub Form_Load()

DoCmd.Maximize

End Sub
6.2 Special Purpose Language Tools
The database to be used by the developers is Microsoft Access. It is important to
be able to run the system for Barangay Citizens Information System. Microsoft Access
provides platform for developing database application. A database application is a
computer program whose primary purpose is entering and retrieved information from a
computerized database.
