I am assuming this is the code you are refering to in telling them they have guessed wrong:

If intNumWrongTries < 6 Then
MessageBox.Show("That is not correct. You have guessed wrong " & intNumWrongTries & " times.")
ElseIf intNumWrongTries = 6 Then
But if they guess the correct word, should not my End If statement stop there?

Thx, Bill
