Creating a simple memory game in Forms Application

Hello there, I've been studying programming in school for a while now and we recentley got into using the Forms Application option in Visual Studio c++. We have so for only created little programs and now it's time to make something bigger. I decided to create a memory game but the problem is that I do not really know how or what to begin with. Our teacher is not the best one either, she barely knows what we're doing right now and always have to look up things in the book or on the internet to find how to fix the problem.

To the point now, I would like to create a memory game which has 12 pictureboxes and 6 pictures in total. The 6 pictures are going to get randomly placed twice in the 12 pictureboxes so the game doesen't have a picture under the same picturebox everytime. If the player clicks on 2 picture boxes and they are the same, those pictureboxes get deleted however, if the player clicks on 2 different pictures then they turn back again. You're not supposed to see the pictures until you click on the pictureboxes btw. When the player has found all of the pictures the game ends and announces a message. There should also be a label which counts the amount of clicks you've made.

If that explanation confused you here's a link to a game which looks almost the same. http://www.gamesforthebrain.com/swedish/mastercards/

If there is any kind soul out there who would like to help me out and not just write the code out but help me out by chatting or on skype I would really appriciate that. I really want to learn this and not just copy a bunch of code.

Thanks in advance, kemkoi.
