So, this is my situation. I have written this code where i have two pictureboxes in my form. Now, i created an animation using the two pictureboxes with a timer. The problem is that i want to write a if else statement which should be somewhat like this - when i click on the first picturebox, it says "try the other one" and the picturebox i clicked should disappear and the timer keeps going on and the same thing happens with the other picturebox too. Its only when i click on both the pictureboxes, thats when the timer stops. How can i write such a if-else statement for pictureboxes. Please help me.

How about this:

VB

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick

   If Not PictureBox1.Visible AndAlso Not PictureBox2.Visible then
      Timer1.Stop
   End If

End Sub

The way I read your question, you can't: you cannot "click on both pictureboxes" at the same time, as you only have the one mouse pointer, and thus the one "Click" position.

I think you need to rethink your design, and work out a way for the user to do things that are possible! :laugh:

Actually i dint mean that i am going to click on both the picturebox at the same time. I meant that when you click on one of the picturebox, it disappears but the timer doesnt stop. The timer only stops when both the pictureboxes disappear.Is there a way to do it?
