randomize

[trevlar04]

i would like to have the computer randomize which msgbox will appear. For instance..."Heads wins." and "Tails wins." after you click a command button.
For as much as i found out, i have to use "rnd". However, I am not sure.

help would be appreciated.

Yes, you would need to use rnd. The way you use it is:

dim number as integer
randomize timer
number = rnd(highval) + lowval

so, to get one of two message boxes when you click a command button, you would put the following code into the click event of the button:

Dim number As Integer
Randomize Timer
number = Rnd(2) + 1
Select Case number
Case 1
    MsgBox "Heads Wins"
Case 2
    MsgBox "Tails Wins"
End Select
