[Year 12 Its] vb6 problem

[gordonp at horsham-college.vic.edu.au]

hi Jim,

here's a hangman project of mine that uses a 'transparent' form. Strip back all the hangman stuff and you'll see how it works... documentation is nothing special.

i use it it to demo arrays and a few other things for an (IS) hangman project in term 3 

cheers        gordon
