Alright well I made this program about 3 weeks ago during Spring Break and decided to let you all test it. It is a program that you can type in questions you would like it to ask and the answers that go along with them. You have to tell it how many questions there should be before you type them in. After you are done typing them in you can edit them if you would like or just save and run them, you can't edit them after you say no. There are two modes for it, Exact Answer and Typical; if you go Exact Answer you have to have in the exact answer letter for letter and Typical it will ask you whether you got it correct or not and you have to be honest with yourself. I plan on making a new version that allows you to edit your questions after you save them, add more modes, and probably a few more but I would like you guys to test it please and tell me if you like it and if changes need to be made. I would greatly appreciate it.

Positive critisim:

• First thing i noticed is that the app started up the top left of the screen, goto the VB explorer(bottom right in the ide) and set it to start in the center of the screen.
  
  
• Would look better if you made the window non resizable.
  
  
• General layout of buttons and textbox is rubbish, can use a frame behind the button and tbox for added effect and make sure they are aligned properly.
  
  
• Menu items are excellent.
  
  
• Need to add error handling for the cut/copy/paste functions as if tbox is empty will crash out the app.
  
  
• If you click new question twice it crashed out.
  
  
• Dont see the purpose of th Answer button.
  
  
• An idea would be to allow the user to double click the listbox in the 'change question' part which would bring up the input box with taht question in it allowing it to be changed from there.
  
  
• Need error handling for the correct answer sub as will crash out if you havent set any questions.
  
  
• Nice otherwise.

Thanks, I really appreciate the suggestions. This is my first real program I tried to make that wasn't out of a book or something my teacher told me to make. Now that I have the full version of Visual Basic at my house I can work on it more.

Hmm... I downloaded and tried to run the program but it wouldn't work. It said some files are missing, or something like that. I am running Windows XP Home. (don't hit me)

Can you give us the source codes, so we can test it by analyzing the codes
