Well im making a game and i need the picturebox when it is clicked form the original location it will move to a new random location and should hardly ever give the same location or a location near it too often.
Can anyone tell me how this can be done?

Something like this maybe:
Code: Select all Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click
Dim R As New Random
PictureBox1.Location = New Point(R.Next(0, Me.Width - PictureBox1.Width), R.Next(0, Me.Height - PictureBox1.Height))
End Sub

Code: Select allpublic void getRandom()
{
Random rand = new Random();
int width = rand.Next(0, this.Width);
int height = rand.Next(0, this.Height);
}
