Answer 2

You don't just copy code around, you have to write code!

Note, also, that your sample code has 4 numbers and *12* letters, not 14.

Given the sample I would make a routine that returned a random number, another that returns a random letter, a third that calls the first once and the second 3 times to build a group and then a fourth that calls the third 4 times to build the result.

Routines 3 and 4 could use loops but personally I would not do so.

Answer 3

This would depend on what IDE you are using. VC++?? Borland ?? what. Each one has a different way of using controls on a form and initiating them. They are usually subclassed classes of the form type and you will have to give them variable names and functions in order to make them do what you want.
