I am interested in making a program to randomly populate gym-exercises from a group of them that I will populate. For instance, I want to be able to check "triceps," and then have "triceps kickback" pop up from a larger group of exercises, and the next time I click it another triceps exercise will pop up.

I have a class and I am trying to randomly select 3 items to display on a page (each item should be unique so that there is no repeating).I have some code that works(ish). The problem is that when I track the random numbers it takes about at least 50 attempts for the application to select a different random number than the one that was chosen the first time (defying the laws of probability).[code]

Right so I have made a graphic of a coin being flipped. Heads is shown on one graphic, tails on the other. I wanna set it up so that when I hit go it will randomly play one of the two graphics on one of my forms.How easy is it to add a .gif file to a form that can play when told to? What is the code im looking for to help with me with what I'm trying to do?
Another thing I plan to achieve is also a random number generator that will display a number on a ball that rolls on to the screen. So the displaying of a number will be timed to show up when the ball comes in focus. I have some code that I have used previously to generate a number, but I wanna get the generated number to show in time with the ball rolling up.What are some wait commands to use in vb .net? This is the code I am using to randomly generate a number.

TextBox1.Text = r.Next(0, 150)
The next step is I need to build a randomizer to randomly select a row and read the columns of that row into varibles.I have a working randomizer that can randomly pick a number between min and max values but what I don't know if how to select a row / How to find out how many rows are available and how to read the values into varibles.Am I right in declaring an Integer Varible then using:
AvailableRows = DDT.Rows.Count
Then use my Random Function to pick a number between 0 and AvailableRows

I need to get a button to enter the applications subfolder and randomly select 1 file to be played in the windows media player COM which i have put in the form.

I manage to create a batch file to be started to randomly pick a file in that folder, but when i do this the file is being played in the systems default player..

I am trying to create an application that will randomly select 14 "stations" (strings) from a list of 33. My thinking is that I have a for/next loop that randomly selects a number between 1,33 which is then inputted into an array (arrnumber) I then want those random numbers to then be used to call the Station name which is saved in the second array, and then for the selected stations to be populated into a listbox (potentially by storing those names selected in a new array?)
Various people have suggested either using a list (of t) instead of arrays, or a Dictionary(?) or perhaps even a database, though I am not all that confident with VB to be able to know where the best place to start with that is. So if anyone can offer any advice, pointers as to how I can link my 2 arrays (I am pretty sure I know how to make the array populate a listbox) I would be very much obliged.
Public Class Form1
Dim Stationid() As String = {"Cardiovascular Examination", "Respiratory Examination", "Abdominal Examination", "Abdominal Examination with Stoma", "Groin and External Genitalia Examination", "Cranial Nerves Examination", "Arm Examination", "Leg Examination", "Parkinson`s Examination", "Cerebellar Examination", "Speech Examination", "Hand Examination", "Elbow Examination", "Shoulder

So how would I use .next (random numbers) to randomly select something from a list of numbers but it can't repeat the number?I could do:
dim num as integer
dim r as new random
num = r.next(1,5)
if num = 1 then
elseif num = 2 then
etc.
That wouldn't work because it would repeat.If I donwload someone's game can I disect it in VS? :0 I tried going to open project, then I went to the folder and clicked open. It brought me inside of the folder so I tried to open the game but there is no form1 there. It says the games name then .exe in the explorer-like thing in the top right?Also, how would I have a value or something in a label and access it from a button.
Example:This is in a label.
Dim number as Integer
number = 0
Then in the button do
Label.number = 0
How would I do something like that? I want to use that a lot as I did in a different language.
I have just about completed a .NET project to write a program to randomly select numbers for a Bingo caller. Over the last month or so Ive learned a lot about .NET but heres something that I consider to be odd and maybe one of you guys can offer an opinion.
One of the features of calling Bingo in a small local club is that callers often use little sayings to accompany certain numbers, I expect youve all heard of (say) All the sixes, clickety click for 66 or 5 and 9 the Brighton line for 59 etc. My little program gives an option to incorporate these with a prompt for the caller that can be edited outside of the program. One of these conventional sayings is used when a number is reversed 12 followed by 21 or 45 followed by 54 for example, when the caller might call (say) 1 and 2, one dozen, number 12 And the other way round 2 and 1, twenty one.
So, I programmed in a bit of code to detect this and to over-ride whatever might otherwise have been the quote with And the other way round and set about testing it. Ive been through literally dozens of full 90 calls watching for the occurrence of a reversed number, spent a few hours doing it, and not once has it occurred which is to say the least, unusual.
So, Im wondering about the Rand Function, could it be that it isnt possible for a reversed number to be selected? Just so you know, I randomly pre-select the order of all 90 numbers, I fill each of the 90 elements of an array with a random number first checking that the number selected hasnt already been stored, if it has, I just get the next random number (and check that too of course), but I cant see how that could prevent reversed numbers being selected, especially in light of the fact that frequently it's not the 'next' number that's used.

I am trying to write a module that will select cells from multiple, non-contiguous columns within a row that is defined by a variable. The column numbers are known and are unchanging. For example, my worksheet might look like this:
A B C D
Row 1 X X X X
I want to select cells A1, B1, and D1; however, I don't want to use the row number (1 in this case) in my code. Rather, I want the row number to be specified as a variable. The code I am writing is inside a For/Next loop, so I would like to use the iterative variable (i in this case) to define the row number. That way, every iteration of the For loop will select cells from a different row.

Our solution is built on ASP.NET v1.1 framework. User is presented with login form, so upon providing credentials this information is posted back to the server. Upon postback SessionID changes and our application crashes as some information which is required for processing is stored in the cache and is identified by SessionID string as a part of the name.
This SessionID change happens absolutely randomly and only to some of the clients. Most of the time browser used to view the page and post info is IE8. I cannot reproduce this issue in our test environment, as SessionID is persistent though-out the whole testing process.
I've already checked all solutions, i.e.
Session cache is used on Page_Load to retrieve/store some information, so it's initialized and contains data stored. I've made a Health Monitoring check on Application_End event to capture any possible AppDomain crashes using Reflection and Diagnostics Libraries and retrieving ShutDownMessage from httpruntime object, but that's also not a case. Cookieless attribute of the sessionState in web.config is set to false (using URL to store SessionID is not an option)
All MS security and bug fixes are installed on the server. IIS Server settings are similar to the ones we use in Test Environment.
