Expert: Brandon Drake Date: 5/10/2006 Subject: Fill in the blanks questionnaires
Question I am trying to create a questionnaire in VB.net that could be used by someone to loads up a questionnaire and then for reach question fill in the blank bit as their answer. It needs to collate the correct answers and then give a total at the end. Have you any advice?
Answer Richard,
Well you could start by making an array of questions, and an array of answers that would be saved as the user submits information.
You could create a Form with a Label, Text Box, and a Button. Then every time the user clicked the button (a "Next" button) the Label's text would change to the text of the next question and the Text Box's information would be stored in the answers array. When you are done you could compare each answer to an answer's array.
I am guessing that you would want to use a file to load the questionnaire. There are hundreds of ways of loading the questionnaire so I can't give you a strait solution. I would look up the "StreamReader" and "StreamWriter" classes in Help.
If you have any more questions or if something above was not clear, you can always send me another question.
