I have got an assignment for school, my teacher is a no hope.. he doesn't even know how to use VB.net. Anyway can anyone help me with a start on this program:

Its a game. A name of a song comes up, the user types in the person they think is the artist and clicks 'ok'. If the answer is correct a message box appears telling them so, and a score comes up in a box an a new song name comes up. If the answer is incorrect a message box comes up saying so. There is a photo/picture behind 9 labels, and one of the labels will dissapear to show part of the picture. At the same time a hint will come up, with a hint about the correct answer. Each time the user gets it wrong another part of the picture is shown and another hint appears. The answers have to be randomnised and they must be stored in a text file or a array.

Help.
 
You'll have to be more specific than just "Help". No one here (I would hope) is going to do it for you. Break the assignment down into pieces and give it a shot. We'll be glad to answer specific questions about problems that you come across but you need to do the work yourself.
 
To add to what Machaira said, what parts do you need help with? If you say "the whole thing" then you're outta luck - I'd suggest by starting to learn programming in general.

You list a LOT of stuff that you want to do. What do you need help with:
1. Reading a text file.
2. Loading images dynamically.
3. Adding radio buttons.
4. How to determine what the choices and answer are.

Nerseus is right. Lot of thing to do into that project. And nobody here (unless he's crazy) would give you all the code to do this project.

You'll have to know what Nerseus told you in his little shopping list (doh).

You might as well consider using an Access DataBase if you are used to. Or if you're not, maybe another structure that might help you like struct, class, etc...

But first... you'll have to ask what you need. Simply telling us that you'll have to learn everything... you won't be better than your teacher ;) lol

Pleasure to help you in the future !
(By the way... welcome to Xtreme.Net ... your first post isn't it ?)
