The problem happens when a person runs out of cards and then plays a safety. What happens is it does not update the currentmillbournes array properly. If you use removecard function that I have created, then it still shows the other physical card. Everything else on the game is okay. Please modify the safety function so if endofdeck=true then it updates the array and updates the cards properly. I will be happy to answer any questions about the logic of the game. When you play, you will be playing against the computer. There is a label that shows how many cards a person has. That number should always match. The project enclosed is the one you will be working from. The purpose of this is so if no one has any cards left, then it ends the hand. Basically there are always 6 cards remaining in a person's hand unless all the cards ran out. Everything is fine if they put down points, or throw something away. The only area with bugs is when someone plays a safety. That procedure is Private Sub safeties_Click(Index As Integer). Here is a website that has more information about the game. http://www.centralconnector.com/GAMES/Milleborne.html This site shows all the rules of the game. The only variations to this version is it is only a 2 player game, a person does not have to have a roll on top to go, and finally the rules for 2 or 3 players are the same as for 4 and 6 players. Deliverables: Modified enclosed project so when someone goes out, then if they play a safety, then it will show the correct number of cards left. Platform: Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows 98 Special Conditions / Other: Must be completed within 2 days after accepting the bid.

I've been thinking and maybe a more acceptable hourly rate would be $10. Anyway, could you please tell me what is the maximum you can offer for that project? PS: The task you need to have done is very simple, but to understand the program you created is not so simple. It takes some hours.           See 2 private reply(ies) to/from Liviu Lalescu.
