Dice is an important tool used in many board games, virtual or physical. We have shown you how to create graphical dice using Visual Basic 6, you can check out the link below to view the code in VB6.<\/p>\n

Writing the code to create a graphical dice in Visual Basic 2010 is slightly different from the code in VB6. In VB6, we used the shape control to draw the dots. However, in Visual Basic 2010, there is no built-in shape tool so we use images instead. Therefore, the first step in creating a graphical dice in Visual Basic 2010 is to create six images, each denote one of the faces of the dice. Next, you write a code that load the images randomly, it is that simple.<\/p>\n
