//Read the txtfile if is not null + perform calculations
while (fileReader.Peek() != EOF)

{

HourlyRate = decimal.Parse(fileReader.ReadLine());

HoursWorked = decimal.Parse(fileReader.ReadLine());

GrossPay = HourlyRate * HoursWorked;
//using if statement when Hours worked over 40 and perform calculations
if (HoursWorked > 40m)
{
GrossPay = ((HoursWorked-40) *(HourlyRate * 1.5m)) + (40 * HourlyRate);

}
//list the result in a listbox
lstResult.Items.Add(String.Format(content1, name, HourlyRate, HoursWorked, GrossPay));


}
lstResult.Items.Add("");
lstResult.Items.Add(String.Format(ending, "Final Total", FinalTotal));




}

Ummm... this forum is cannot be used to solve assignments. For these, books are the recommended information source

Try to figure it out, it cannot be that hard

Hint: use breakpoints in your while loop and see the value of GrossPay. Then consider when to add the value to your listbox.
