Typing Game?

Hello. I am making a typing game for the final project of my short, highschool VB 6 course. I am looking for a way to have a string of letters displayed that the user needs to type in. I can make a string of random letters, but I don't want the user to type the letter in a seperate box. I want each character to change to a different color when the user types it in.

So, for a string "asdf",
typing "s" should do nothing
typing "a" should change "a" to green
then typing "s" should change "s" to green.

I also need the program to know when all the letters have been typed in correctly.

Thank you in advance! :thumb:

Is there anything in particular you need help with? We cannot do the entire project for you. Post what you have done so far.

I need to know how to code the way the user types in the text. I don't know how to make the letters change colors when typed. I don't even know were to begin with that. I can do the rest of the project.

You will need to use the rich text box control to change the letters to different colours. Add it by going to Project-> components. Experiment with the rtb's properties see if you can get the letters to change colour.

Yes look at using the RichTextBox Control :) Though you will need to make a function to automatically change the color of the text.
