New D.I.C Head Joined: 13 Jan, 2008 Posts: 1	Hello, I am making a replica of the game frogger in VB6 and I have reached a snag. When the frog dies 3 times, I have coded a message box to pop up and announce game over. I have coded the message box like this: CODE intGameOver = MsgBox("GAME OVER!", vbOKOnly, "Game Over") This code returns the following error: "Compile Error: Expected array" Could someone please tell me what is going on here? Thanks, PheenixTears420

Perhaps another statement before the Msgbox() call is causing the error.
