Change all of your “And” in your if statement to “Or”
Private Sub BtnStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnStart.Click
If TxtBox1.Text = "" Or TxtBox2.Text = "" Or TxtBox3.Text = "" Or
TxtBox4.Text = "" Or TxtBox5.Text = "" Or TxtBox6.Text = "" Or
TxtBox7.Text = "" Or TxtBox8.Text = "" Or TxtBox9.Text = "" Then
TmrGame.Enabled = False
MessageBox.Show("There Must Be A Total Of Nine Letters To Start The Game", "Not Enough Letters")
Else
TmrGame.Enabled = True
End If
End Sub
By using And, you’re checking that all of the text boxes must be blank, then you’ll set your timer.Enabled to false. With Or, you’re saying if any of the text boxes are blank you’ll set the timer.Enabled to false.
