I'm using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition

I'm suposed to make the message box say "The Mallard Cafe is 3 stores to your left" when the button is clicked.
I was given a hint but I have no idea as to where to put it.

Private Sub MallardCafe_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
          ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MallardCafe.Click
     MessageBox.Show ("The Mallard Cafe is 3 stores to your left")
End Sub

THis is what I have so far.

}

Idk for sure I didn't try this but there is a function button1_click(). Perhaps that is where the action for the click should go. Sorry but I don't have a compiler right now to check that with.
