here is the code i got so far.

Private Sub cmdChoose_Click()
Dim arrNumber(1 To 6) As Integer ' Array
Dim intLucky As Integer ' Random Number
Dim intCount As Integer ' Selection Counter
Dim intCheck As Integer ' Previous Selection Counter

For intCount = 1 To 6 ' Select Six Numbers
Start: ' Start Point
Randomize (Timer) ' Seed Randomiser
intLucky = Int((49 * Rnd) + 1) ' Random number 1 to 49
For intCheck = 1 To 6
If intLucky = arrNumber(intCheck) Then
GoTo Start 'If selected number already present, select again
End If
Next intCheck
arrNumber(intCount) = intLucky ' Store selected number in array
lblNumber(intCount - 1) = arrNumber(intCount) ' apply selection to labels
Next intCount
End Sub

Private Sub cmdQuit_Click()
Unload Me
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To 5

Yes certainly. Store the user-entered numbers in six created variables (Bytes would suffice) Then just compare each number with each of the generated numbers using 'if' statements e.g If user1 = lotto1 then ..... etc. As for variables holding stored numbers after the machine is switched off, I suggest you transfer the numbers to constants at the end of each week's 'draw'.
