As some of you know, at my AOIT acadamy i'm talking "Programing 1" this class teaches the basics of programming in Microsoft's Visual Basic. Anyway I finished up my final project, and this is what I'm submitting.
Mediafire: Polyhedron.exe
Mediafire.com: Polyhedron Source Code

Your program failed to run on my home computer, so I took the liberty of fixing some of your project configurations.
Download
Changes:
*All system dlls will copy to the output directory on build, for portability. It was the visual basics power tools that crashed it on mine, but I set it to copy them all for good measure.
*Build platform is changed to "Any CPU" which will let the program execute in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments.
*Added an exception handler to the App initialization event to spit out debug info if the launch fails. Just in case.
I didn't touch any of the code that was already there, but I did find some issues.
*The word is spelled "coordinates".
*The X and Y component of the custom coordinates are inserted separately for some reason.
*Having added coordinates to the list and clicking [Default] will put the coordinate "Left:" field into the negatives.
*Why can't the user pick an arbitrary number of points for the custom polyhedron?
*Why is the shape drawing method tied to the [Display] button instead of directly to the Form Load event?

Well if you took some programming classes you might get help with your homework, too.
Unless you have a C++ linker error. F*** those things.

Well it complains that my 2010 visual studio express version is not supporting it (Couse yea that is what we work with cosue we are scrubs with no money

). Oh and the exes still don't work ...
EDIT: Weird I tried to open it now the project seems to work.
So the idea is to draw lines between given points ? Well I had no idea what co-ordinates to input and the results were quite chaotic

, it work anyway so good job.

Well, even considering all the stuff you found Fr0stbyte, (I didn't even know there was option for different Operating Systems) I got a 108 on this project, 5 extra points for complexity, and 3 extra points for dressing up.
