I'm working on creating a very simple dice game for class (not for gambling purposes). The users has already entered their total amount of money, and are are able to wager for every round. We were supplied with 6 different picture files to represent the 6 sides of the dice. It will be located in the C:\Temp folder, and after the user clicks a play button, the form (frmDice) will appear, which has two pictureboxes(pbDice1 & pbDice2) located on it.

I have a form with one richtextbox and one button. The idea is that:
Form Load: data read from text file into arrayButton Click: random number generated, then used to select the string whose index number matches the random number generated
My StreamReader is working correctly and I can create random numbers with no problem, but I'm stuck on how I can use this random number to extract the corresponding string. I keep get the error saying QuoteObject reference not set to an instance of an object.
My code is below:
Imports System.IO

When I resize my form at run time (border set to sizeable) .Net automatically adds scroll bars.
I can pick the vertical scroll bar ok but on the horizontal scroll bar it always shows the resize cursor and so I cannot pick it.
Is there some way of controlling the zone within which the resize cursor is active or the active width of the border detection?

View 1 RepliesI have this code to pick a random number Between X and Y
X = Minimum Number
Y = Maximum Number
But the problem is i wanted to know if there is a better random function than the one i have.
Because right now i put
Min = 1
Max= 2
and it keeps picking 1
if i had min =1 and max =2 i want it to pick 1 sometimes and 2 sometimes
and now i tried min = 1 max = 3 and it never picks 3, it only picks 1 and 2
ok
Public Class Form1
Public Function RandomNumber(ByVal MinNumber As Integer, ByVal MaxNumber As Integer) As Integer

Lets say i'm making a new dialog. I don't want to expose the properties of the form to code elsewhere, only specific ones I define.
