Can't Get Passed First Page!
Hi,
This is a basic( no pun) question, but it has my head wrecked!!
I have just started on VB and its my first attempt at programming
I Have a learning edition of VB, im trying to write a quiz type program ( hey there's
nothin on TV). I have my first page done, IE, What is blah blah, i have a lits of awnsers,
you pick one hit the enter button and are told it right ( or wrong) .
Now im stuck, how do i go on to the next question,i've tried looking up all the help menus
i can get me eyes on , but im getting nowhere, i know its simple ( i hope).
Hope you can help,
Thanks

EH thats a good question, what am i trying to do!!
Something along the lines of a simulated exam test ie A+
type of thing, like i say i have the first "page" done, when you answer that question i want to be able to go on to the next one and so on ,do i do a different page or form for each one ? how do i make the "NEXT Question " button lead to an identical page with a different question,

Create two forms (named Form1 and Form2), with a button (Command1) on the first form, and put in this code in Private Sub Command1_Click:
'Insert here your code for testing if the answer is right
Form1.Hide 'you could also do Form1.Visible=False
Form2.Show 'you could also do Form2.Visible=True
'Insert here your code for testing if the answer is right
Form1.Hide 'you could also do Form1.Visible=False
Form2.Show 'you could also do Form2.Visible=True
This isn't a proposed answer, but just a helpful bit of advice.
If you understand how, and the security of the actual answers is important, then I would suggest putting the questions and answers in a database.
There are many good reasons for doing this. You don't have to work with files, and since the database is password protected, nobody can see the questions or the answers.

Frame1.visible = false
Frame2.visible = True
Or if it is a form you can do the same thing
Form1.visible = false
Form2.visible = True
I hope this helps. I don't know if I quite understand what you are doing though.
