VS 2008 Hangman Code Not Working?
May 22, 2011
my Hangman Codes aren't working and i'm stuck at the part where it searches the word to see if the letter/word is in the word to guess and then i would like some pointers on how to go about making this D**n thing work.Here's the code i got so far.'I Know that i have some things in here twice and in different ways but that's because one didn't work so i tried another and that didn't work either i had them annotated out for debugging'
Public Class Form1
Dim strLetterGuessed As String = ""
Dim strWordGuessed As String = ""
[code]....
View the attachment to see what the form looks like. 'The red stuff was added after the screen shot using Paint'

building the hangman on hangman and also making a password box. The password box is less important. I can probably figure it out with time. The hangman on the other hand, not so much.so far i have this under cmdA:
For counter = 0 To Len(word) - 1
If word(counter) = "a" Then secret = Mid(secret, 1, counter) + "a" + Mid(secret, counter + 2)

Im using Visual Basic 2008.Okay I got all the design, and everything set up, even the hangman body parts coming on the screen and stuff. So my problem is creating the BLANKS, the underscores "_", and replacing them with a letter...
I was thinking creating Lables which i have no idea how to dynamically. Then giving each label name the letters they belong to, and everytime the user gets the rigth letter they get replaced.

I am making a hangman style game in VB 2008 Express. I am a beginner and instead of making any graphic related content (i.e. the hang man), I am using a 3 strike system. So far, I am just about finished. Only problem is whenever I choose a letter that is incorrect, it adds 1 to the strike label. The problem is, the second time I choose an incorrect letter, the "1" does not change to 2! The line is as fallowed:
strikelbl.Text = +1

2. Display Form1.vb in design view.
3. List the controls by the Name property and the control names, if any, that are not descriptive.
4. Change the Text property of the form to "Hangman."
5. Change the FormBorderStyle property to Fixed3D.
6. Explain why the form should not be resizable.
7. Change the Font of lblWord to Size 12 Bold.
8. Reposition lblWord so that its left edge is aligned with the left edge of the PictureBox picBody (the box in the center of the form).
9. Add code to the btnExit_Click event procedure to close the form, and exit the application by calling the form's Close method.
10. Add code to the btnNew_Click event procedure to:

I'm working on making a game using VB, and part of the game involves being able to cast magic. What I did was put all the magic spells into a table in a database with the various properties I'll need at one point or another.The problem is that I need to only be able to select from a list of certain spells (Namely those your character is strong enough to be able to cast), and have it display the cost of the spell in a text box. My way of getting the right spells was as follows..first mak the structure of the table: [code] how can I use that usableSpells table I made as though it were in a database (IE making a textbox have something like "usableSpells.Spell_Cost" and making it display the relevant cost)? Trying to do it directly gives me "'Spell_Cost' is not a member of 'System.Data.DataTable'.,

my teacher assigns me to modify the program hangman game that allow a player to enter a word that contains any letters up to 10 letters.That assignment is from my textbook, Programming with MS Visual Basic 2010 by Diane Zak.[code]Now here's the problem I'm having trouble with. I don't know if my substrings is wrong or right, but when I type a word, the problem crashes and gives me the error of this.and another problem I'm having trouble with is how can I have dashes to match with the length of words? For example, if I type "game", it'll display "----" in the exe program. If I type "cat", it'll display "---" in the exe program as well.

I am working on this hangman project that has a graphical interface where the user has 2 options either guess the entire phrase or use a combo box to guess letters. I have the guess text box working but I can't for the life of me figure out why it is not working correctly with the combo box. The following is my entire code for the project. I have it setup to show me which phrase it randomly selected but when ever I pick a letter in that phrase it doesn't fill it in or anything. I'm thinking it is an issue with my loops.
I highlighted the section where the problem is occurring.

It appears that my favorite thing in the world is tackling projects that are beyond my current knowledge and abilities. I have a little project that I am working on which is a simple image viewer stocked with (upon completion) your standard Load..., Next/Previous, Zoom In/Out, Actual Size, and Full Screen capabilities. However, I am running into a few snags:
(1) I've been able to get my "Load..." button to display a file dialog box, but I cannot seem to get a working filter (with which only image file types are allowed to be selected) in working order.
(2) I have a PictureBox object (entitled PictureBox1) that displays the image selected via the file dialog box, but it loads images in their full size (1:1/100% zoomed) state without scrollbars, etc. to allow me to navigate the loaded image. I would like to have it load the image, initially, to fit within the dimensions of PictureBox1 and from there be able to zoom in/out via my "Zoom In/Out" and "Actual Size" buttons and be able to scroll if the zoom level is beyond the dimensions of PictureBox1.
(3) It dawned on me that I haven't the faintest idea how to get my "Next/Previous" buttons to allow the user (me) to navigate, in succession, the images contained in the folder in which the currently loaded image is stored. [code]
If it is deemed that this thread is inappropriately requesting help, I ask that it be locked/deleted quickly as I recognize that this is a large community with many discussions going without need of unwelcome posts.

I have most of the coding done, but i don't know how to code my hangman program so that when you enter a wrong letter, a picturebox image would appear eachtime. Also i want to put a limit on the amout of guesses you can have. If possible, i would also like a listbox with the letters that you have guessed wrong stored in it.
Here is my code so far:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

i've created a hangman game (Fully working) but since you can only "play" with one phrase (10 letters) it gets boring fast. Basic the current game works by on form load i define the slots (10 string which each hold a letter) and give them there letter. then the user type in a text box and if the textbox = any of the slots then the lbl repasenting that slots changes its text from "_" to the letter.
Anyway what I would like the button to do is when the user presses the start button a random number is generated. The program then looks into a textfile and based on which number is generated it takes a certain line (10 characters per line in a phrase) , moves them into the slots and the game starts. Is that possible to code or it too complicated. The textfile will be in the applications folder (words.txt).
