If you struggle take the problem down to the basics.
Create a simple console applications, to test out ideas and concepts without added complication a UI framework brings.

thanks a lot

Programming is just writing code into an IDE, the vast majority of it is problem solving.

What do want the code do?
What is the code actually doing?
What happens when the login is successful? unsuccessful?
```
If MsgBoxResult.Yes Then
```
Isn't working as you think it is, because you don't capture the result of the messagebox.

your logic is incorrect. why your loop is till "ctr" is equal to 3 and then you decrease it:
```
       While ctr = 3
```
what must i put on my while ?

 Dim ctr As Integer
        ctr = 3

        While ctr = 3
            If TxtUsername.Text = "julie" And TxtPassword.Text = "mamatra" Then
                MsgBox("Access Granted!")
                Me.Hide()
                FrmSimpleMath.ShowDialog()

            Else

                MsgBox("Access Denied! Try Again?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo + MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
                If MsgBoxResult.Yes Then
                    ctr -= 1

                    If ctr = 0 Then
                        MsgBox("Error!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
                    Else
                        TxtPassword.Clear()
                        TxtUsername.Clear()
                        TxtUsername.Focus()

                    End If

                Else
                    End
                End If
            End If
        End While

hi,
about how to increment
```
Dim i As Integer
i=i+1
'or
i+=1
```
As m_wylie85 sad you should think of making the user name case insensitive you can use .ToLower method. and you should think of using DB for your login. If your program is simple you can at least use a file that you can save the passwords and username. this way you can make a login form that you can create a users. try avoiding using hard coded passwords and user names. you can only add some admin pass or something that can be used by you only.
good luck
thank you!
