A little bigger: Make it work for arbitrarily sized inputs :)

I would first work through some of the Microsoft tutorials. Each of the tutorials is an "example" of a mini-project. As you work through them, you will get ideas for similar applications, or ways you could extend the project, and you will be learning thigns at the same time.

In addition, by starting from the tutorial, you will have a clear idea how to make something similar. Otherwise you might come up with an idea that is too complex to implement for your level.

Just google "msdn vb tutorial"

A: 

Here's an idea - a little utility that will allow you to store your username/password for different websites. You need to make sure that the utility itself is password protected very securely, and so is the information that it stores. (i.e. it should be stored encrypted). There are probably web-based examples of this, and Symantec has a utility that automatically puts it in for you.

A: 

The best example is something that YOU need. Just watch yourself in your every day life ... i't there a moment when you think "this would be useful". When you get that idea, write it down.

Half the point of the exercise is to learn creativity in coming up with your OWN idea. Imagine if Sergey Brin or Steve Jobs just kept posting "guys, got an idea for me?" The truly successful people in life come up with their own ideas. If you can't come up with an idea for a mini-project in your own, how will you ever become more than a code-monkey in the future? The answer is no, because all you will know how to do is to implement code for someone else's ideas.

Creativity is partly innate, but mostly developed. It's like being an athlete ...even Lance Armstrong would be nothing if he didn't train hard. And even the least genetically gifted can achieve great fitness levels if they train hard.

Get off your mental butt :)
