More information:

As a hobbyist VB programmer I tried to make my own version of HangMan. It has taken me, with a huge amount of help from News Groups and sites like www.freevbcode.com , to embarrass myself with this code :-)

I know there are a few bugs in this code and the code can be made much shorter and understandable but my aim, as a then newbie is to show tips and tricks using resource a file and animation. Also shows how to use PopUp menu's, simple docking forms and much more.

SPECIAL NOTES:

I used VB6 SP5 Rich TextBox as a "Help" option. If you do not have VB6 SP5 Rich TextBox simply change Rich TextBox to your version of VB6.

To have the full effect of this game you will need a True Type Font named Morpheus.ttf which can be obtainded from http://www.frightshack.com/download/pages/fonts.htm. I did not include this file because I not sure of the copywrite.

Instructions: Click the link below to download the code. Select 'Save' from the IE popup dialog. Once downloaded, open the .zip file from your local drive using WinZip or a comparable program to view the contents.
