Trying Not To Match User's Input When Computer Gives Random Numbers "Lotto Game". Please Help.

-----------------------------------

What is it you are trying to achieve?
I AM TRYING TO GET THE USER TO INPUT PAST WINNING NUMBERS, THEN WHEN THE USER COMES OUT OF THAT WINDOW "OPTION 1" GOES TO "OPTION 6" TO GET NUMBERS COMPUTER GIVES THE USER THE USER DOESN'T WANT THE EXACT SAME LINES OR MATCH THAT THE USER INPUT IN "OPTION 1". BUT THE COMPUTER IS ABLE TO GIVE THE NUMBERS AGAIN JUST NOT SHOWING THE LINE IT SHOWS WHEN USER INPUTS. EXAMPLE: USER INPUTS "5, 10, 20, 35, 45, 15  =130" AND THE COMPUTER GIVES "20, 45, 10, 8, 40, 7  =130"


What is the problem you are having?
TRYING NOT TO MATCH EXACT LINE THE USER INPUTS WHEN THE COMPUTER GIVES RANDOM NUMBERS BUT IS STILL ABLE TO PICK THOSE NUMBERS


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem

1. For crying out loud. take off the caps lock!
2. Use puctuation! I can't make heads or tails out of what you are trying to do
3. Use  for short code blocks. Use file attachments for long ones
4. Clean up/comment your code! what in the world is the point of all this 
put "*" 
locate (34, 16) 
put "*" 
locate (35, 16) 
put "******************************************"
