Am trying to write a program that will ask the user to enter a number 1-10. The lucky number is 7, if the user enters 7, it will output ''you won!'' else ''try again''. Any other number entered by the user will output the number of trials remaining. The user can only play the game x3, after that it will output ''you lose!'' and exit. Am using code blocks. Thanks

Hi Kulestdon10,

You mean something like this?: 
Sub MindGame()
Dim nLucky, Counter, uInput As Integer

nLucky = 7
Counter = 2

TryAgain:
uInput = InputBox("Can you guess the lucky number?", "Test your luck")

If uInput = nLucky Then
    MsgBox "CONGRATULATIONS, " & nLucky & " is indeed the lucky number."
Else
    mm = MsgBox("Sorry, that is incorrect. Would you like to try again? (" & Counter & " retry's remaining)", vbOKCancel)
    If mm = vbCancel Then
        MsgBox ("Thanks for playing")
        Exit Sub
    End If
    Counter = Counter - 1
    If Counter = -1 Then
        MsgBox "Sorry, but you are out of retry's, thanks for playing!"
        Exit Sub
    End If
    GoTo TryAgain
End If
End Sub


Best regards,
Trowa

WOW, will you do my homework for me, too, Trowa?

If you ask nicely, Mark ;).

I guess I'm not so good in recognising homework questions.

Can you forgive me?
