Project1: Make a program that will print a triangle of stars. User must be able to input amount of stars on bottom row.

"
Public Sub Main()
Dim Counter As Integer
Dim NumOfStars As Integer
Dim Stars As String

Stars = "*"

NumOfStars = InputBox("Please input number of stars on bottom row:")

For Counter = 1 To NumOfStars
Debug.Print Stars; ""
Stars = Stars + "*"
Next Counter

End Sub

Here you go

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim Counter As Integer
Dim NumOfStars As Integer
Dim Stars As String
 
NumOfStars = InputBox("Please input number of stars on top row:")
Stars = "*"
 
Do Until NumOfStars = "0"
Do Until Len(Stars) = NumOfStars
Stars = Stars + "*"
Loop
Debug.Print Stars; ""
NumOfStars = NumOfStars - 1
Stars = "*"
Loop
End Sub
