Would someone please check my function? [SOLVED]

[hothead]

Public Function ComparePlayerAnswer()
    Dim SelectedAnswer, Msg As String
    Dim IsCorrect As Boolean
    Dim NumTries As Integer
    NumTries = NumTries + 1
    If IsCorrect = True Then
        IsCorrect = False
    End If
    For i = 0 To frmQuestions.cmdChoice.Count - 1
        If frmQuestions.cmdChoice(i).Value = True Then
            SelectedAnswer = frmQuestions.cmdChoice(i).Caption
        End If
    Next i
    If SelectedAnswer = QuestionArray(CurrentQuestion).Answer Then
        Msg = "You are Correct."
        IsCorrect = True
        If NumTries = 1 Then
            Msg = Msg & "  5 picks on the game board have now been granted to you."
        Else
            Msg = Msg & "  1 pick on the game board has now been granted to you."
        End If
    Else
        MsgBox "Incorrect"
    End If
    If IsCorrect = True Then
        MsgBox Msg
    End If
End Function

For some reason, NumTries is resetting itself every time the program processes the function. As a result, it is displaying that it will give the player 5 picks on the game board when it should in fact only be giving 1.
