Visual Basic Help Please

Hi there- I am trying to create a program and I am very new at this! Please help.
Using the mouse up and mouse down event I need to draw lines. The lines will begin where the mouse is pressed down and will end where it is released. Then I need to save the X and Y values of the mouse location when a button is pressed in two form level variables. In the mouse up event I need to create a Pen and use the locations from both the mouse down and mouse up to draw a line that connects to points. I really need help with this!!

This is what I have so far

'create a graphics object to use
Dim mygraphicobject As Graphics = CreateGraphics()
'create an empty bitmap object
Dim mybitmap As New Bitmap(200, 200)
Dim X As Integer = 100
Dim Y As Integer = 100
Dim blnstop As Boolean
Dim intX As Integer
Dim intY As Integer
Dim g As Graphics = Me.creategraphics


Private Sub Form1_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Paint
'draw mybitmap
mygraphicobject.DrawImage(mybitmap, X, Y, mybitmap.Width, _
mybitmap.Height)
