Minesweeper game help

[Kayano]

Hey guys just wanna tell you now that I chose to do a minesweeper game or attempt to do one for a class project in VB. Now I'm not that experienced of a programmer so this is fairly difficult and I can tell you that I'm in way over my head with this so please don't get made/ frustrated that I'm asking for SOO much help. This is my first year of taking Visual Basic in a college setting. I really gave up asking my teacher because he's kind of, well, not good at this stuff which is weird right?

Anyway, amazingly I have it so it sets up a 10x10 grid of buttons, but other than that, I'm lost. I've tried to find source code to see how stuff works, but I get completely lost because that code is so advanced.

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

        ' The comma indicates 2 dimensions, as in x, y
        Dim mineFieldButtons As Button(,)

        ' Create our array
        mineFieldButtons = New Button(Width, Height) {}

        For X As Integer = 0 To Width - 1
            For Y As Integer = 0 To Height - 1
                ' Create the button
                'mineFieldButtons(X, Y) = CreateButton(X, Y)
                ' Add it to the form
                Controls.Add(mineFieldButtons(X, Y))
            Next
        Next
    End Sub

This is my code so far =(
I'll take any help someone is willing to give.

My *goal* is to make it so when a button is pressed it goes to flat, i know the code to make it flat but it doesn't want to work when I type it in. Then I want to get the bombs and numbers set up. The clearing of blank squares, to me, is trivial, I just want this to be able to work closely to the real thing.

EDIT: I have code except I'm struggling to get this event thing to work anyone have any suggestions?

Public Class Form1
    'DECLARE ALL VARIABLES

    'The width of the game
    Const GameWidth As Integer = 9

    'The height of the game
    Const GameHeight As Integer = 9

    'Width of the Cell
    Const CellWidth As Integer = 16

    'Height of the cell
    Const CellHeight As Integer = 16

    'Grid
    Const GridLeft As Integer = 12

    'Grid
    Const GridTop As Integer = 81

    'Declaring the minefield as a 2D array
    Dim mineField(GameWidth - 1, GameHeight - 1) As Button

    'Declaring Timer
    Dim sec As Integer

    'Declare minegrid as a click
    Public Event mineGrid As EventHandler

    'Random Number Generator
    Dim rand As New Random()
    Dim number = rand.Next(1, 10)
    Private Sub ExitToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ExitToolStripMenuItem.Click
        Me.Close()
    End Sub
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        'Loop to create the minefield with buttons
        For y As Integer = 0 To GameWidth - 1
            For x As Integer = 0 To GameHeight - 1
                mineField(x, y) = New Button
                mineField(x, y).Width = 16
                mineField(x, y).Height = 16
                Dim ButtonX As Integer = GridLeft + x * CellWidth
                Dim ButtonY As Integer = GridTop + y * CellHeight
                mineField(x, y).Location = New Point(ButtonX, ButtonY)
                Me.Controls.Add(mineField(x, y))
                AddHandler mineField(x, y).Click, AddressOf mineGrid_Click
            Next
        Next


    End Sub
    Private Sub NewToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NewToolStripMenuItem.Click
    End Sub
    Private Sub mineGrid_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles mineGrid.MouseClick

    End Sub
    Private Sub Form1_mineGrid(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.mineGrid

    End Sub
End Class

Just add

Make a public or private sub for minegrin_click

something like this

Public Sub mineGrid_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs)
MessageBox.Show("Works")
End Sub

It says this thread is solved. What is your final code?
