    What do you mean by 'online game'. If I understand you correctly, you probably mean like a card game or something...kinda like what Yahoo has done with their games section. If that is what you want, you will need to write a Java Applet. If you have never programmed in Java, you are going to want to learn that. There is a lot of information at www.sun.com since they created Java. You can also download their SDK there also.
    Here is a bunch of tutorials for Java:

    If you are talking about making a game in VB (since we are in a VB forum thats what I presume) and having users download it, then install and play, they would have to connect to other users. You are going to have to include code in your application to A) connect to a central server and send and receive information from/to each user or B) add code that will allow the users to do a direct connect (IP Addresses) to each others computers. Maybe this will help you get started. It is about TCP/IP.
