multiple if's ... quick question

[jdbb]

Let's say im creating a tic-tac-toe's game or a slot machine. For it to be won there has got to be 3 of the same pictures in a row (circles/x's for tic-tac-toe or bar/bar/bar for the slots). The problem im having here is that i cannot code such a posible condition.

i was just introduced this year to programming and i would love to continue learning.

any tips or help?

What are you using for the control for the image? Not much info to go on here...

Control arrays would come to my mind first as a solution. Put one control on the FORM and then COPY/PASTE it back onto the form a second time. You will be asked if you want to create a "control array" - which is basically a clone of the first control - using array-like properties to index them.

sorry i did not make myself clear....i meant once the game is won i want to make it stop...how do i code such a posible condition where:

if image1=image2=image3 then
text1.text = "you have won"

???

[szlamany]

If image1 = image2 and image2 = image3 Then
   Text1.Text = "You have won"
   ... code to stop/restart or exit the program goes here...
End If

Here's a tic-tac-toe game I wrote. Maybe you can get some pointers from it.
