Making a Quiz - Help! How to Open new form???

[vb08isgreat]

Alright, this is how it is.
I'm making a quiz game on Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.
There is 25 questions, and each form is one question.

I have the splash screen done, and then form one loads.
i want it so that when the user clicks the button with the correct answer, a message box appears saying: "Correct!" And then a little bit of information about the question.

the the next form pops up when the user click OK.

Please help!!!!



Thanks

I dont think using a form for each question is healthy. Try just changing the caption of the label or the text of the textbox each time.

Anyway, to show the message, just do something like


[CODE=vb]msgbox "Thats right!" & chr(13) & chr(13) & "The smurfs lived inside mushrooms called Amanita Muscaria, also Toad, the Super Mario character, belongs to this specie"[/CODE]

Chr(13) is for going to the next line

to show a form, use its Show method:

Form2.show

Or the equivalent method in VB2008 xpress (which i've not downloaded yet =()

HTH

i wasn't specific??? umm... ok
i have a form for each question.
i want to close the current form and open a new one when someone clicks a button.
i haven't tried anything yet because i don't have any clue about the codes.
get it?

Are you using MDI/Child Forms??

I tend to use the following code when I am NOT using a MDI/Child set up and it works well.

Be careful though because if you need to calculate scores etc you will need to reference the answers from each form to total them up at the end.

Form2.Show()
Me.Hide()

Hello,
Instead of putting a lot of forms use some database or some kind of text file at back end to generate questions.

Next
To show a msg box and viewing the next form use this code.

msgbox "Correct!" & VBNewLine & "Your information about the question"
Form2.Show
Me.Hide
