Hi Jim Thanks for writing back. I will try out your method of bracketing the numbers. But I still need to know why I was stuck in the game. Why didn't the game finish after I match the last pair of items? Is it because I didn't guess any numbers correctly?

You know, just to practice at guessing the number for my Concentration game. I believe that the best thing to do is to bracket your guess. That is the first guess might be 50. If the number is higher guess half way between 50 and 100 like 75. If lower than 75 but higher than 50 guess at half like 62. keep bracketing the number like that and you should be able to guess the correct number before using up all of the prizes in Concentration. The guessvb.zip file can be found on my free windows sapi5 text to speech games page. guessvb.zip. is a simple sample guess the number game with it's VB6 source code. It uses the sapi5 text to speech engine and DirectX. I have commented the code hopefully so that one can tell what each line of code does. All of my code is in the guess.frm file and starts with the line that reads ' Sample guess the number game By Jim Kitchen Everything above that is put there automatically by VB6. HTH BFN Jim There are no answers at best a few possibly good guesses.
