Public Class MainForm
Private Sub xExitButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles xExitButton.Click
Me.Close()
End Sub

Private Sub xConvertButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles xConvertButton.Click
' displays the pig latin form of a word

Dim originalWord As String
Dim pigLatin As String

originalWord = Me.xWordTextBox.Text

If originalWord.Substring(0, 1).ToUpper Like "[AEIOU]" Then
' if the word begins with a vowel, add "-way" to the end of the word
pigLatin = originalWord & "-way"

Else

Dim isVowelOrY As Boolean
'Dim indexNum As Integer
'Dim word As String

Dim length As Integer

Do
pigLatin = originalWord.Substring(0, 1)
originalWord = originalWord.Remove(0, 1)
length = originalWord.Length
Loop Until originalWord.Substring(0, 1) Like "[AEIOU]"
If originalWord.Substring(0, 1) Like "[AEIOU]" Then
originalWord = originalWord & "ay"
Me.Label1.Text = "This word in pig latin is " & originalWord.ToLower & "."
End If

If Not isVowelOrY Then
' if the word does not contain a vowel or the letter y,
' add "-way" to the end of the word
pigLatin = originalWord & "-way"

Else

' if the word does not begin with a vowel or the letter y, but it contains
' a vowel or the letter y, add a dash to the end of the word, then
' continue moving the first character to the end of the word until
' end of the word

End If

End If

'display pig Latin form of the word
Me.xPigLatinLabel.Text = pigLatin

Me.xWordTextBox.Focus()
End Sub
End Class

I'll be a monkey's oinkle. You didn't read the "How to Post a Question" thread, did you? Shamey, shamey, shamey.

thanks for your assistance

Thank you for acting like an entitled brat. It made my day.

Your code is already hard to read as it is... maybe because its in VB, or maybe because you forgot to use code tags. :/. Repost with code tags and post the exact error. My eyes go numb looking at what you sent so far.

Also, for a bit more of an insight on this, look at the other thread you made.
