i have a two-dimensional char array that holds the values of a tictactoe board.Each element holds a value of either 'X','O', or and you can access the values with something like TicTacToe[0][1]with the first bracket containing the row # and the second containing the column #.
Whats the best way to detect the winner of a TicTacToe game? I was thinking about just making a function like this Private Function checkWin(Byval TicBoard as Char[][]) as Integer 'Return 0 if no winner, 1 if Player 1 wins, and 2 if Player 2 wins End Function Any ideas? I want to avoid using 8 if-else statements since that seems pretty inefficient and sloppy

I am programming the board game Sequence in vb 2010 and I have gotten to the point where I now need to figure out if someone has won or not
Here is a link to the game Sequence and it's rules: [URL]
I have looked at How to find the winner of a tic-tac-toe game of any size ? which is similar to my problem but gets very complicated if I wanted to try and migrate the idea to Sequence.
I am wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to tell if there is a winner?
The only way I can think of is keep a list of all the possible winning positions and I would not like to do that.

I am writing a noughts and crosses game and everything works but the checkwinner sub routine, so basically if someone gets three X's or O's in a row then a message box pops up saying either X has won or O has won.Below is what I have written in the sub routine.

In our program we track the moves in arrays by columns 0 means empty, 1 means black, 2 means red so it would look like this for example
column1(0) = "1"
column1(1) = "2"
column1(2) = "2"
column1(3) = "1"
column1(4) = "0"
column1(5) = "0"
for column 1, and we have seperate arrays for each column (7 in all) but they all have the same values 0,1, or 2 so how can we make it check the arrays and their values and detect a winner?

I am querying a db based on some conditions and then I am putting these data in a text file. This is done by a for Loop. Is it possible to have some message box telling that data1 is being copied, data2 is being copied, etc. Some kind of dynamic textbox, telling what is being done at the background.

I'm trying to display some data in my combobox, the strange thing is that the combobox displays all data that has 4 four columns (I only want to display 3 columns out the four) but its not displaying rows that only have three columns?
For example
Text File
Column1, Column2, Column3, Column4
I only want to display columns 1, 3 and 4 so I use the following coding
For Each Line As String In System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(Path)
If String.IsNullOrEmpty(Line) Then Continue For
Dim Columns() As String = Line.Split(New Char() {" "c}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
If Columns.Count < 4 Then Continue For
Combobox1.Items.Add(Columns(0) & " " & Columns(2) & " " & Columns(3))
Next Line
But some of the rows only have
Column1, Column2 and Column3
Again I only want to display column1 and column3.

I've written some code to get an image file from a OpenFileDialog, and then offset the X position of the image by -50, and then display that offset image in a panel. But for some reason, it is displaying the image twice inside that panel. Could someone please tell me how to get it to only display the offset image in the panel? I'm sure it's something simple, but I'm wracking my brain with this one.
If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Dim Bitmap As New Bitmap(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
Dim Graphic As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(Bitmap)

I'm new to the world of VB.Net <-> Databases.I'm currently working on an application with SQL Compact 3.5.I realize that data et values on objects from the database but what I want is more custom...Students should have 3 fields for example, tableId, their name and birthYear.1 | John | 20002 | Peter | 1999And so on. What I want is to display their birthday on some label.text = "(" & DBvalue & ")" based on the selection of a listbox (which has tableId's listed as values). You don't have to worry about the update method of that label.text value, I just want a way to retrieve the birthYear value and put it into my label.text together with those extra characters, based on the tableId selected. (which I already have a way to get, so don't worry about that either).

I'm trying to make a way for them to export orders to a .rtf file. In order to preserve formatting (bold, underline, etc.), I'm creating a RichTextBox (through code) and formatting the text appropriately. To save the output, I'm simply using the RichTextBox.SaveFile method. Now, to list all of the products that were sold in the order, I'm deriving the information from a ListView. The ListView contains the product name, product price, and quantity sold of that product. I cannot find a way to list the output in a table-like structure, so I tried making a DataGridView and pasting it onto the RichTextBox. Unfortunately, this didn't work at all, so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what I can do. I can't simply use Tabs to space out the information because it doesn't get formatted nicely.

I am working on a program where a user either enters "small" or "large" and then the number of toppings. Once the user has done that my program outputs the total cost of a pizza based on user input.
My problem is no matter if I enter LARGE or SMALL into the textbox for size of pizza the output displays "A small pizza with 2 toppings cost: $x.xx"
It also displays the price of the pizza as a small one. So somewhere along the lines it changes everything to be small.
this problem only started occurring after I made this procedure.
Procedure that I believe is causing problem
Function IisUserInputValidSizeOfPizza(ByRef mytextbox As TextBox, _
ByRef errorMessage As String) As Boolean

I found a sample of how to display data from a table in to a datagrid using VB.
con.Open()
Dim reader As SqlDataReader = _
cmd.ExecuteReader()
DataGrid1.DataSource = (reader.GetSchemaTable())
reader.Close()
But this just displays the details of the table columns. For example row 1 has details about usrID, row 2 usrTel ect rather than the actual data of the table.

To be honest I am fairly new at VB as a language, and I just came across a problem that I can't figure out. I have a feeling it's something simple...but here it goes.I created a set of string variable on my first form as follows:
Dim strpro1 As String = txtpro1.Text
Dim strpro2 As String = txtpro2.Text
Dim strpro3 As String = txtpro3.Text
Dim strpro4 As String = txtpro4.Text
Dim strpro5 As String = txtpro5.Text
I set strpro1 as a global variable in my module:Module Module1 Public strpro1

I have a form set up for drag and drop. The dragging and dropping is working nicely, as it allows the user to put a pair of dots onto a rectangle, which is exactly what it is supposed to do. However, I would like to give them some information about where they are dropping the points. My first thought was that I could use a tooltip. However, it appears that tooltips are not displayed during drag events. The tooltip works well, and is showing what I want, once I have released the mouse button, but not before then. The only other alternative I can think of, and it is not a very appealing alternative, is that I have some labels elsewhere on the form to display the information.

I am working on a program that will display the number of storms in a specified year. This program uses a text file with years 1990-2010 and the number of storms for each year.
txt file:
Year 2010
6
Year 2009
3
Year 2008
8
Year 2007
15
Year 2006
10 .....
A user selects a year from a ComboBox (cboYear) and the program displays the number of storms using a label object (lblNumberOfStroms) for that year. The user then can click a button (btnDisplayStatistics) and the program will display using a label object, the number of storms for that year. This seems like a simple application but I am having trouble grasping the use of arrays concept.

But im having problems on how to know if the cursor is on the textbox or datagrid.For example, If I clicked the textbox, and i clicked f1, Customer List Form should appear. No problem with this.

connected to my Arduino. Using the VB.NET (2010) GUI I request which LED I want on (via buttons) and the I2C device then sends a reply confirming which LED actually turned on (basic feedback). Ok, sounds great right? Here's where I get issues. Well when I try to read the serial data sent to VB and display the real-time stream on the GUI, a) I get a bit of a mess as an output (values are ok, just spewn across GUI) and b) when I select a new LED to turn on, the GUI data does not refresh to this change. The stream being sent from the Arduino is ok, I looked at the data in a serial monitor.

I have a VB 2008 program that was converted from VB6. I used an AxMSComCtl2.AxAnimation COM control to show a simple AVI file (no sound) in VB6. Is there a .NET Framework control that I can replace this old control with? I have found the MediaElement that looks like it can only be used in a WPF Application. There is also the Media Player Component which seems to also be a COM component. So, I don't see the advantage of switching to that.
