Specs
Write a program that provides an entertaining, user-friendly two-player version of Jeopardy. You must include at least 3 categories of questions on the menu with 5 point levels (10 to 50 points). Each category will appear as a "top-level" menu command. The point levels will appear as "submenu" commands below each category. Each sequence of submenu commands (10, 20, 30, 40, & 50) should be a menu control array. When a player selects one of the submenu commands, he/she is presented with a question and is expected to enter an answer. Use text boxes and labels rather than annoying input boxes and message boxes to interact with the user. Also provide each user with his running total score as the game progresses. The game must end when all of the questions have been answered and declare a winner. (Hint: Keep track of the number of questions answered as a static or module-level variable.) The players must be able to exit the program at any time via a File/Exit menu command.
Your program must follow the Visual Basic Documentation & Coding Standards. Save the form and project files as "Ch7Prob2 " with the proper file extensions (.frm & .vbp, respectively) in a newly created folder named Ch7Prob2 within your network Basic folder. Also, save or copy this project (.frm & .vbp files) into a folder named Ch7Prob2 within your Submit folder (so that the instructor can execute and test the program.)
Print out the code and the form image and staple them together with the code window on top. Type and print out your pseudocode using MS Word and save it as "Ch7Prob2Pseudocode.doc".
Staple your printouts in the following order:
