Writting A Trivia Game For A School Project?
Mar 25, 2011
I need help writting a Trivia Game for a school project. The teacher wanted us to get used to looking to forums and google for help so he refuses to help us for this particular summative.
What I want to know is.. how to use a streamreader to read questions randomly from a text document located in the debug folder (I have 10 questions all in 1 text file in the debug folder, and the same for all of my answers) how to use a streamreader and split function to read answers from a text document located in the debug folder to a combobox.

I am in the process of writing a battleship game for a final project for school. I get what to do for the most part, but need a little jump start for writing the "ships" class. Does anyone have any suggestions?
So far my game starts with a dynamic array of buttons, but as of now they don't do anything. I need to be able to have the user place ships in places and have the computer randomly generate positions.

User of Virtual Basic, as we really just started programming in my Computer Programming class yesterday. I figured that I could use Visual Basic to make a trivia game of some sort to study for various classes and stuff.
The game is set up in four categories based on topic, which each has 10 questions. I have no problem linking one form to another here. However, each question is multiple-choice. To get to each question, you need to click on a button, which changes the label text and all that. The problem I'm running into here is that I need a way to get a message to pop up saying "correct" or "incorrect" for each question. Being that each question will have a different answer, I can't just put "MsgBox("Correct")" under one of the multple choice buttons. I've Googled this, and I've found something with setting values to each button, which I tried, but I must have done it incorrectly.

I'm wanting to add two forms to my project that will allow me 1) Pull all the current MS Updates installed and list them in a nice looking grid, 2) Pull a list of all the available updates for the machine. I would love for this to work on XP/Vista/7.

I am basically 4 weeks into my first ever programming class and we are working on a project for the game "Hangman". While I have struggled with everything for the past 3 weeks, I have finally cams across something I have no idea how to correct. I am getting a Null.Reference error in the following line of my
If Not strWordToGuess.Contains(strLetterGuessed) Then
Now this code was provided in my project files, it was dated 4/07, I am currently working in VB 8 express, I am thinking this might have something to do with it.

So I am supposed to be choosing a final project for my visual basic 2008 class. I cannot help but remember an old high school classmate from web design class who made a program that used the speaker built into the motherboard (or whatever makes the start up beep when you turn computer on) to time the beeps to play simple songs. It was very funny and amusing and I was wondering if anyone had seen something similar or knows how to go about making one?

So as the message says i believe im having a problem when declaring an array as control. The background:Im doing a school project where a picture is covered by 48 buttons. When a user clicks a button, they are asked a question. If they answer write, the button disappears until the whole image is displayed.
Im using each buttons visible property to hide it. Now that i think about it, i should probably un-enable it after a question is answered correctly.anyway, I keep getting a NullReferenceException when making the visible set to false. Any suggestions would be awesome. I have already created all the buttons and named them Q1-Q48.

I was just playing around with trying to set up a datacontract that returned a class that had a property that took/returned an enum value. I could set the class up so that it worked great, but the service contract seen by the client had the enum turned into a string, of all things. Had it been turned into an Integer, that would have been useable, but not a string

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.
Public Class frmHang
Dim strWord(10) As String 'array of answer cchoices
Dim strAnswer As String 'the correct answer

I'm having a little trouble creating a game of pairs as a project.Basically I've got to the point where I can start a game, layout a bunch of cards in a grid, 6x6, and then have a way of matching the pairs together. First of all I used a For loop to assign the cards into a two dimensional array. They are pictureboxes however so when a user clicks on 2 cards, checking them to see if they match has become confusing. I've tried to stuff like this for example but it's not working: [code] This doesn't work because it can't compare the picture boxes stored to the array slot. Is there any clever person with a way around this? Or that can think of a way to compare them. The pictureboxes kinda need to stay like there though :/

was wondering if it was possible to write/read from a programs memory inside of your visual basic 2008 application. I've done tons of research and "googled" everythingt to be able to read/write values of a running process from with my application.I did read somewhere that you can only read/write up to 4bytes in vb.net, That would be just perfect

i have a vb project im getting a bit of trouble with.this is how it should work user input text in the textbox. the input text will be count as single character each one by one after been checked they will be writen to a text file but all in caps if use input symbols, there is a look up table to turn that symbol in charater and then write it to the text file. after all that are writen to the text file another part of the program will copy the text file to another location and delete the original one. so here is my problem because the text file will be deleted i need a code that will create a text file each time the programme runs.

i Imported 2 programs that I made into one solution. I made a "BIG" main menu (new windows form), put two buttons. I code one button to open up the first project (that works fine). I code the other button to open the project I imported, however it says that the name is not declared. Am I doing something wrong? here is my code for the "BIG" main menu:
[Code]...
now only the "Original name of first project" appears to be not declared, if I delete "Original name of first project", then "the project I imported"is not declared and so forth. Note: These are not the exact names I called my forms. I'm just trying to explain it clearer.
