Hi Everyone

I'm struggling with this practice assignment. I'm very new to programming and am fairly frustrated with this. I've researched multiple sites. Hope anyone can help!

I need to create a WindowsFormApp with 2 ComboBoxs having 2 values each. When a button is pressed the output in the Label on the form needs to show a unique sentence, depending on which combination of selected fields the user selected in the ComboBoxs.

Hope someone can help!

What have you tried? Where is the code you are stuck on?

To be honest i'm not sure where to begin.

I've used

combobox1.Items.Add("Text1");

and used an if statement but how do I use text in an if statement?

I've tried creating the Combo Box values as variables but after that I'm completely lost.

What is "Text1"? Are you wanting to add the text to the combobox? I don't think you can add a control to a combobox.

I must say, I almost never saw beginners frustrated with this fact (many were frustrated with particular difficulties, especially with some bad products they had to use, but this is perfectly OK). Many feel all right, many are excites, some overly excited, many overestimated themselves, but almost never frustrated. Are you sure it yours?
