Hi there folks. I am working on a program to teach students how to subitize numbers. Subitizing is a fancy of saying you can look at a random arrangement of items/dots and know what the total is without counting. For example, how we can roll dice and know what the number showing is without counting the dots.

However, I want to challenge the students so the dots are drawn in a variety of random arrangements. Instead of just "rolling" a 4 for example and have the dots in their regular spots, I would like the dots to be drawn in a random arrangement within a certain border area, such as a picturebox.

Would anyone have any experience with generating random spots for VB6 to draw dots? Right now, I have it so the program randomly picks a number from 1-10 and puts it in a label called QPickLBL.caption.

Thanks a ton!
