Lottery wheel generater

[kclough]

Hi, Iam new to vb6 and Iam looking for information on how to generate combinations of numbers for a lottery wheeling system.
Basically a user will input how many numbers they want to use and also how many in each line.
EG they may choose say 10 numbers to wheel into lines of 6 for the UK lotto or 10 numbers for a hotpick game 3 numbers per line.

Example

4 numbers for a pick 3 game.
1-2-3-4
line1 = 1-2-3
line2 = 1-2-4
line3 = 1-3-4
line4 = 2-3-4

any info thanks
Kev

Check out the function in Form1, I made a while back.
I think this is what you're looking for.
At the time this was exaclty what I needed so it served its purpose well.

Cheers!
