I have to come up with a program that shifts names in a text box a random amount of times. I have gotten everything up to the point where the names shifts a random amount of times. It only shifts its once, but my messagebox appears through the code as many times as the names should be shifting once i click ok. Does anyone know why the loop is not working for the name shifts. I was thinking maybe the messagebox needs to control the loop, but I have searched endlessly and cannot find how that would be done. Any suggestions or referrals to other sites would be nice thanks. My code is below.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim RandomNumber As Integer
Dim min, max As Integer
Dim temp, temp2, temp3, temp4, temp5, temp6 As String
Dim i As Integer
min = 3
max = 11
Randomize()
RandomNumber = Int((max - min + 1) * Rnd() + min)
temp = n1.Text
temp2 = n2.Text
temp3 = n3.Text
temp4 = n4.Text
temp5 = n5.Text
temp6 = n6.Text
For i = 0 To RandomNumber - 1
n1.Text = temp6
n2.Text = temp
n3.Text = temp2
n4.Text = temp3
n5.Text = temp4
n6.Text = temp5
MessageBox.Show("Shift " & i & " of " & RandomNumber & " complete")
Next
End Sub
End Class
