i want to store multiple values in an array. lets say the variable name is voternumber which is a unique number that is generated which is between 1 and 5000. i will output the voternumber to a voter and then as them to input it so that i can perform a check to see wether it has been used before or not. To do this i will need to store all the unique voter numbers, i do not know how to do this i know of arrays but dont know how to add to them b clicking buttons.

Please help and elaborate by giving an example. thanks a lot. if not using arrays could you please explain any other method.

- List or ArrayList can be used for better reasons. and It contains .Contains method which to be used in your case.
- Use Random class to generate numbers but check if the generated number is has been generated before or not.

vb.net Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. Dim numbers As List(Of Int32)
  2. while(numbers.Count > 100)
  3. {
  4. if Not numbers.Contains(GetRandomNumber()) 
  5. numbers.Add(GetRandomNumber())
  6. }
