This article shows how to use the OLE Automation DLL to create a string without relying on VB to do it. When VB creates a string, it automaticly fills it with data (which takes a great deal of time when dealling with large strings). This way bypasses VB and creates the string itself, without filling it with data. The result? 200 times faster! I have updated the tutorial to include Example 1 re-written using the faster method. The code includes a benchmark and the function described below. Please vote or leave a comment!

This program doesn't do much (displays memory usage percent) but it does include 3 useful modules. The first one allows you to set a window to always on top by suppling an hWnd value. The second allows you to move a borderless window. The third gets the memory status of the computer. Line by line commented. Please rate on code structure, not application functionality. Thnx!

I DONT KNOW WHY MY OTHER SUBMITION WAS DELETED!! It was getting high rank. Well, this is one more recent update. The idea is NOT to hack nothing. Is just an example that shows you how to intercept and manipulate the querries from a broswer to certain site. Check the code and drop a note and VOTE for it. I hope this one dosent get deleted. Thanks

This demo application demonstrates the use of a Custom Tooltip Class supporting square and ballon style tooltips, centered at the corresponding control or at the mouse pointer hot spot, with or without title. Individual back- and forecolors are also possible as well as an assortment of Icons to be displayed in the tooltip and finally individual delay- and show-times. The code is easy to follow and well documented. And on top of that the class is very easy to use. Check it out, download is only 6.4 kB. (Sorry the screenshot didn't come out very well)

Hello Guys! It was my attempt to develop an ASP Editor, and has a lot of things done. The Properties Page works well, but I didnt some menus in the main form. BRASILEIROS.. ACESSEM O NOVO SITE DE PROGRAMAÇÃO: http://www.coders.com.br

This is the third release of the hugely successfull MultiPlex Online Application Protocol. It allows users to stream specially created OAP applications over any TCP/IP connection using HTTP as it's transport. MultiPlex is a scripting interface that I designed a year ago. It allows uses to create applications using many languages mixed together, eg: JavaScript and VBScript in the same application. With the introduction of version 3 come many new features. Now the scripts can be compiled into complete applications with full GUI features - dialogs, buttons, labels, timers - anything. If you can make a program in VB you can make it in MultiPlex. The script also has full access to the Windows API and is able to call any function it defines. Version 3 also allows the user to create and changes skins that an application may use. To show the power of MultiPlex I have included a sample program (Minesweeper, from a sample on PSC). This also demonstrates another feature of MultiPlex - events. In the future I intend to make MultiPlex into an online setup program...a very powerful one. The best way to see how it works is to download it and see. I was unable to find a good web host to use to emonstrate the streaming features, so when the message box appears please press No and open the Minesweeper sample. I believe that this is very useful code - if you do and you are impressed, please vote. There are so many leaches out there that take code, use it, and don't even think about the work that went into it...Anyway - enjoy!!!

A Visual Basic IDE add-in that will count the lines of code of any component of open projects. It also presents a basic analysis of both the selected project and the selected component. To see it work just compile the "linecounter.dll" file and copy this file to your c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\vb98 directory. You'll then need to add the line "LineCounter.Connect=3" to your vbaddin.ini file which can be found in the windows directory and restart your VB IDE. There will be a new menu entry under "Add-Ins" called "Line Counter".

This small code runs an msn messenger server. It allows for people who either don't want to, or can't, connect to the official MSN server, to still use MSN messenger and to talk to other people using the same server. This has never been done before, so, there are some bugs and a few missing features (namely contact list groups), but, otherwise this is great for a school, small office, or someone building an MSN client from the socket level and needs a good example. Also, wait for the screenshot to load, they are popular clients, with a quick registry/ini hack (.reg to simplify process included), connected to my server, talking to each other. Includes file transfer support.

Black Winter 2 (BW2) is the second space shooter in its series, featuring many main weapons, side weapons, special weapons, variety of enemies, and its regular end-of-level bosses. The game uses 24-bit graphics, image masking(bltblt), sound effects, background music, and realistic explosions. The game is written in well commented codes, a tutorial guide to help programmers to build a basic space shooter, and a printer-friendly user manual for gamers who wants quick reference on weapons and ship statistics. Players are welcome to send to me their highscore files and up-to-date pilot standings will be published here. Votes for this submission are much appreciated. <p/>Top 10 Pilots: <br/>1. jzthealien (131220 - Killed LastBoss) <br/>2. Ryan Catling (118260 - Killed LastBoss) <br/>3.

This is a reworking of 'Geespot_Particles' giving many more options and settings to play with. Becasue this does not use the Shape control you can have many more Particles than before. This is also a demostration of my ClsUpDown (See other upload 'Decimal Fraction UpDown Class' for explanation). See http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=41231&lngWId=1 for the code which inspired this. I think my code is different enough to ask for votes but please vote for GeeSpot as well. Hope you like it.

this code will show you how to make the controls rounded and it will gives them a new look if u get bored from the vb GUI this is for you its EASY AND SIMPLE NO OCX look At the screen Shot! if u like it please vote.

How to keep the upper/lower case of Enumeration members

A user in a newsgroup was asking how they can get the effect of fading out a control on a form. They knew how to fade a form (as I think we all do by all the transparent demo projects on this site). The poster however just wanted to fade out a control on a given form and have it fade away to nothing. So, I put this project together real quick as a starting point for him/her to see one way it could be done. I will tell you now, it is really just fancy API work to move the control off the form to another and fading that new form but it gives the effect the poster was asking for. Just thought I would share for everyone else here and to give him/her a link of where to come and see the code. KEYWORDS: TRANSPARENT, FADE, SETWINDOWLONG, SETLAYEREDWINDOWATTRIBUTES

Updated 12-APR 2005! Add UTC time offset from Local time and formats Time / Date based on country/regional settings. Function module for getting UTC (GMT) time and date. Demo program shows how UTC functions relate to standard VB time/date functions. Being a Ham Radio and Shortwave geek, I needed UTC time a lot for logging and schedule time conversions. Comments welcome

Demonstrates one method of creating custom menus that can contain images, combo boxes, or any other Windows control. Although this is not the most powerful method, it doesn't require any API custom calls or any third party .ocx's (like the Office Toolbar). NOTE: This is a DEMO project. It is not a finished product. I realize that it has some pretty big limitations as it is, but it should be enough to get someone who needs to add VB controls to menus a good start. I made it simple to make it easy to understand. Please feel free to use it, modify it, and call it your own...but please don't tell me things like "It would be better if it had a calendar control" or something like that. Instead, modify it to include a date-picker, calendar control, or whatever and re-post it as an improvement. I am sure others would appreciate that and I sure won't mind.
