This is an event driven VB user control to handle serial COM communications. Instead of using the default ocx you can now compile this user control with your code and you don't need to supply any extra ocx's or third party dll's to support serial comm's.

Simple server-side menu control - kind of - for ASP.NET pages. It's best suited for a site where all pages use the same menu. All pages share the same pagelet, which contains all the menu items and the logic. You can define two menu levels (main menu and submenus). When you click on a main menu item the submenu drops down. The currently shown page is shown bold in the menu. The code contains the pagelet (navbar.ascx) and a sample page using it.

Demostrates how you can easily create a cool menu using the default filters which are part of internet explorer. You can easily modify the code to use it for your own menus.

11/10/2003: To celebrate my mother's birthday (to whom I shall dedicate this update to) I've decided to post a new version of the code. As posted in the recent article, all of the bugs and features that you have suggested have been implemented. Thank you very much for your comments! If you find any new bugs, please let me know! This article will teach you about a big secret of the NT File System (NTFS): Alternate Data Streams. First off, a brief history about ADS will be offered, followed by practical applications of data streams, with examples. Finally, explanations on how to protect yourself from the dangers (and what they are) of ADS. Full source code is included as well as a GUI for scanning your disk for ADS, as well as editing and viewing them (or creating new ones). As a bonus, there are two versions, one in pure API, and one using VB controls. Finally, you can integrate this app in a VBS script, with very little modification, for server maintenance.

Hi everyone, Included in the ZIP file is a new version of the NTFS Alternate Data Stream code. It fixes all the bugs listed below, and add new features. All of these have been kindly given as suggestions from everyone on the site, and I wish to thank you! If you'd like to read the original article and vote on it (if you haven't seen it already), it's located at: http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/default.asp?lngCId=47299&lngWId=1

I haven't seen this on PSC using the filesystem object or a collection. very neat and fast since you don't need to go through it twice to redim an array. the only slow down with this code is the print statement.

After hunting for this functionality since I started using VB, I've finally figured out how to *quickly* read the last few lines in a file. This function fills a dynamic array with the last X number of lines in a file you specify. I use it to monitor apachewin32 logs on another server. This is much faster than using 'line input'. I know there may be more optimized ways of doing this, I just thought I should get it out there.

Just learning how to manipulate the ListView Control and thought I would pass this along. Might do more controls later on if response is good.

This code shows how to keep the current row position highlighted after a sort is done by a user on a DataGridView by clicking one of the column headers.

Shows how to get the former and current value in the current cell of a DataGridView along with customizing the current DataGridView context menu.

This project demonstrates a very simple usage implementing a DataGridViewImageColumn. The project has been kept simple to allow a good learning experience. Nothing is needed outside of Visual Studio, all data needed is created via an array for the demo.

Just a simple program which uses the FileSystemObject and Recursion to output a complete directory/file structure of your computer to a file. I was originally gonna use this as a sort of snooping thing a while ago, you could run it on someones computer, and then read the text file to see what they had on their computers. The text files come out quite large, but when zipped up they're usually only about 50k. Uses a good example of recursion.

Yet another word processor. Shows the basics of centering text, left/right justify, choose font, font color, cut, copy, paste, undo, select all... Keeps track of if your current file has been saved or not, basic word processor. I got bored.

Shows how to add items to a listview and then save those items to either an INI file or to Registry. Once saved you can then load the data back into the listview.

Threw this together to answer a group of questions in the Discussion forum. It is intended to help those just starting VB. It demostrates string manipulation, file handling, simple navigation, reading and writing to files. It includes four example apps that include menus, window handling, file properties and a basic text editor. Code for each function appear in a textbox ready to copy into your project. I hope this is of some help to people beginning VB. Good luck.

If you are writing an Image Editor or your app opens picture files you need this. Just like the big boys you can now show a preview of images right there in the CommonDialog window. Very easy to use. Add a module and a small form to your project and call with a single line of code.

This module provides a Win2K interface to the Browse for Folder under Win95/98. This is not an update to my earlier submissions but a complete rewrite using pure API. With Win2K MS introduced a new DLL (SHELL32.DLL Version 5.0) which includes a better Edit box, Popup menu and a New Folder button. With this module you can achieve the same result (except the Popup menu) using the old DLL (SHELL32.DLL Version 4.71) as used by Win 95/98. Additionally you can add a checkbox, customise captions for Titlebar, OK button, Cancel button, New Folder button. You can also resize the Browse for folder window. Additionally you can choose to open the dialog double size or full screen. All the usual features are present, such as include files, start at special folders etc. You can select between the old style Editbox or the Win2K style editbox (Much better I think.) Why bother? - Not everyone is running Win2K. Very easy to call. Heavily commented and includes complete sample usage. Please vote if you find this useful.

Browse for Folders Dialog with 'Create New Folder' button and 'Include Subfolders' checkbox. CommonDialog with image previews. Both these controls are updated versions of functionality included in some of my previous submissions. Now Win 2K compliant. Please vote if you like it.
