first VS.NET app

Hi,

I'm trying to create an application which has an 8x8 grid.
Each square in the grid can be clicked on or off with the
mouse. Then when a "go" button is clicked the squares in
the grid will switch each other on or off depending upon
the states of the adjacent squares (like in the game of life).

My question is simply: what is the best way to implement
this? Should I use lots of picture boxes? Is there a way
of automatically creating a grid? There will be 8 possible
states for each square in the grid which I would like to
display with gif or jpg images.

Thanks in advance, John.
