Declare the variable outside of your procedures:

-----------------------------------------------------------
Private intHighTestScore as Int32 'variable to hold the high test score
-----------------------------------------------------------

Then, inside your click event for the submit button after you calculate the current score, I am using a variable called intCurrentScore but you can substitute whatever you currently have:

-----------------------------------------------------------
'process code to get the current test score here and assign
'it to the variable intCurrentScore

If intCurrentScore > intHighTestScore Then
  intHighTestScore = intCurrentScore
End If
-----------------------------------------------------------

You could then use the variable to display the score in a label, textbox, etc. The only problem is, once the application closes, you lose all of the information. A better way would be to store this data somewhere - a text file, database, etc.

Thank you

You have been a great help.

No problem.

With this accumulated data, how would I add these items to an array each time I add a new score.

I don't think you need to add the high score and the average to an array since at any given time they are only going to equal a single number and you can store this in a single variable.

If you want to add other things, such as first name, lastname, score, etc., you can do something like this:

----------------------------------------
'declare these outside of any procedure
Structure Test
   Dim FirstName As String
   Dim LastName As String
   Dim TestScore As Byte
End Structure

Private Scores() As Test
Private intScoreCntr As Int32

---------------

'put this in your submit button click event
ReDim Preserve Scores(intScoreCntr)

Scores(intScoreCntr).FirstName = txtFName.Text
Scores(intScoreCntr).LastName = txtLName.Text
Scores(intScoreCntr).TestScore = txtScore.Text

txtFName.Text = ""
txtLName.Text = ""
txtScore.Text = ""

intScoreCntr += 1

----------------------------------------

Although this method will work, a much better way would be to store all of this information in a database.

Thanks again for your help
