Tetris-like objects

Hi Everyone!

I was hoping to get some ideas here so please feel free to give me any suggestions, etc.

I'm planning to develop a game in VB using Tetris-like objects in VB... I'm just a beginner in VB game programming... I usually use files/database access instead of doing game programming. Any ideas how I will achieve this?

I don't plan to program Tetris, just a simple puzzle which using the right object, will fit... just like doing a puzzle.

Any thoughts to point me in the right direction will be appreciated. Thanks again!
