Yeah, using And and and and or using or or or or or , not really a good concept, better off using ElseIf
But,I think there is another underlining issue, Im looking for it right now.
Here you go
this will work
[php]
Dim one As String
one = ComboBox1.Text
Dim Two As String
Two = ComboBox2.Text
If one = Two Then
MessageBox.Show("You have two or more of the same perk.", "Error!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon******rmation)
Else
MsgBox("It Works")
End If
[/php]
SO in your case
Dim one as string = Combobox7.text
Dim Two as string = Combobox8.text
and so forth
