I am having a hard time figuring out how i could determine the winner of the game and how I can determine if a game is a draw. Any suggestions or code that i should input in my porject? Please help me. Im new in C#.

im using microsoft visual studio 2008.

How are you storing the playing board? What indicates that a player has occupied a spot on the board?

This is my program.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace game.casestudy
{
    public partial class Form2 : Form
    {

        public Form2()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void objectiveToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Form Ronald = new Form3();
            Ronald.Show();
        }

        private void closeGameToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            this.Close();
        }

        private void newGameToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Form Ronald = new Form2();
            Ronald.Show();
            this.Close();
        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

You're going about this all wrong. You should have a 3x3 array that is updated as the game goes along with the placement of the pieces. Then you can use a loop to see if there are 3 pieces in a row or to see if the array is full.
