    Question Same Code Diff Error

    My goal was to make something that would constantly update the amount of gold that someone had. If they had X number of gold, it would display a certain image for a picturebox. You get the deal.

    Here's my code. Please tell me what's wrong. I get "Error 1 'Money_Checker_Loop.My.Resources' is a namespace and cannot be used as an expression. C:\*\*\AppData\Local\Temporary Projects\Money Checker Loop\Form1.vb 33 47 Money Checker Loop
    "


    Code:
       Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
    
    
            Static intCounter As Integer
    
            ' Increment the counter
            intCounter = intCounter + 1
    
            PlayerGold.Text = Val(intCounter)
    
            Select Case intCounter
                Case 1
                    PictureBox1.BackgroundImage = my.Resources.995
                Case 2
                    PictureBox1.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.996
                Case 3
                    PictureBox1.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.997
                Case 4
                    PictureBox1.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.998
                Case 5
                    PictureBox1.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.999
                    ' This will essentially set the counter back to 1
                    ' because the value will be incremented on the next click
                    intCounter = 0
            End Select
    
    
        End Sub
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Re: Same Code Diff Error

    Your resource names should begin with a letter or an underscore, not a digit. Same rules apply to all identifiers in vb.net. Rename 995 to gold995 or something else starting with a letter.
