This control is my replacement for the standard VB masked edit control. It came about by my need to add a .Locked property to the masked edit control... and my utter disgust with the colors and performance of the masked edit controls available in the 3rd party libraries. For the most part, I was pleased with the performance of the MS masked edit control, but it needed some tweaking (in addition to the .Locked property). For starters, I needed an alignment property because I wanted to use the masked edit with numeric and money fields. Then, for the purpose of money fields, I wanted to be able to apply a .Format, and then programmatically block certain keystrokes (alpha characters, for instance). And referring to fields, yes, it had to be data bindable. I accomplished all of these things, while retaining the MS masked edit control at the heart of my user control. This preserved the flexibility that was generally lost in the 3rd party controls... and spared me from the much more difficult chore of trying (like other examples I have seen) to implement a masked edit control using a plain ol' text box. In my research, I came across several examples, and none had gone so far as to perfectly preserve the flexibility of the masked edit. Anyway, this user control adds the following properties to the standard masked edit control: .Alignment, .AutoSelectAll, .Locked, and .AllowedKeys (a clever and easy to enhance enum; check it out).

Take your Desktop apps into this decade by using XML files for INI Files. This Module will translate or convert your exsisting INI files into XML. If you are interested in the source code to access elements in your XML Files in place of INI Values, let me know

This code lets you extract resources like version tables, icons, cursors, bitmaps etc.. View dll calls, dependencies, header information and much more! Please vote if you like the code. I know it isn't perfect.

This logs texted that is typed. It is hidden from alt+ctrl Delete. It can be hidden to the toolbar as a icon. Or it can be totally hidden. If you like it leave comments or vote.

A "drop down" auto type .Not exactly "drop down" , as you'll see by the code.It just simulates a drop down.Also contains some help about "dropdown combobox" i found on the net.

To control a "friends" computer remotely. Instructions and FRANKINAL application included.

This is an AWSOME code!!!! It really rocks!! it's the official X-BOX JOKE!!!!! :) hope you like it too....it's made by my top secret friend ;) Andreas Thilander

If you have ever needed to have your program start at the same time as windows starts without putting the program into the start up menu but have been unable to figure out how to do it then just follow the following text.

UPDATE: Added a compiled HTML Help File (.chm) I am sorry about the file size (1.9 MB) Has NPC Gen, PC DB with edit capabilities, and Dice Rolling. It also allows you to print the characters and their stats in an Access Report style. This is currently loosly based on AD&D 1st edition rules with player expansion modules. Whether you play AD&D or not, this code demonstrates the use of databases and accessing and changing multiple tables, printing reports, generating random numbers, generating random data that follows rules and constraints and working with MDI forms. It also shows how to maintain program settings via the registry and demonstrates a quick and easy way of creating a time-limited program. All and all, a lot of functions are gone over here. Look beyond the program function and focus on the code functions. == Changes == I commented the functions in this updated zip file. Changed the Report writer to use ODBC instead of Jet 4.0. Saved the database in Access97 format for those who do not have Office 2000. Fixed Path statements for Database in Program startup and in the Data Report connection string. Comments/Suggestions are welcome and encouraged.

This program creates truth tables from boolean expressions. I believe that it's very useful for Computer science students who learning Boolean algebra and predicate logic (like my self). If you like it and you found something useful, please vote for my effort.

VB does not have an icon browser to browse through all the build in office icons. So I made one. Simply scroll through the list then select the icon you wish to use. The icons index will apear as well as a 16x16 and a 32x32 preview of the selected icon. The source is not commented very good.

This is the source code for a very early version of a MMORPG I'm writing Aeonlegend (www.aeonlegendonline.com). It has a few features such as: -Loading from GIF files -Transparency in both 16 and 32 bit colour -Easy character and GUI editing You can make your own skins for the game by editing TOP.GIF, GUI.GIF and GUI.map. Please remember to comment and vote for this code. The more good feedback I get, the faster the game will get made. Note that my actual email is [email protected], the email in the text file is wrong. If you're looking for my old code I removed it, because some people were unable to read that the graphics were borrowed.

Web Messenger is a simple TCP/IP messenger application just like MSN Messenger.

wwwwwwhhhhhhheeeeeee just a funny game i dont have any discrtion for this code sorry. accept it dont usses directx - and its not fineshed (tcp\ip suport)

After you have read my tutorial on adding a registry entry no doubt now you will want to be able to remove it as well.

Are you a database programmer? Did you ever have to move a bunch of data files from your desktop tp the server or back? Well he is an app that can help you move lots of files with the same .ext while looping thru the subfolders of that directory to find them and copy them to the new location in the same subfolder name they came from. I used FileSystemObject for this action. Nobody's code did any looping thru SUBFOLDERS.

This is an update to my post of a week ago. It now saves to file, shows if password caching is on or off, and displays proxy on/off status and ip of proxy. Removed gradient affect for faster loading. Next version will have ability to toggle password caching on/off, change computer name, change registered owner and backup the registry. Hope you all enjoy this. Use very carefully. I cannot be responsible for any misuse of this program.

Using MS Agent's Direct Speech Recognition (DSR), you can easily create visualizer software without having to worry about the ''waveout meter'' seen in another submission. The idea is simple, the code is simple, and creating your own visualization is even easier. Well commented. Requires Direct Speech Recognition from Microsoft, which you can get at http://msdn.microsoft.com/msagent/default.asp. Please Vote.

Update of the Xenopolis game originally posted by Ivan. I've changed a few things. Below is a list of changes... 1) Lowered House cost when under 500 acers. 2) Raised House cost when over 500 acers 3) Changed Soldiers to androids 4) Research now affects income 5) Research cost lowered 6) You can now attack the pirates 7) Added moral to limit attacks 8) Added a networth feature 9) Added a ranking feature 10) Raised the cost of androids 11) Other little tweaks throughout the game. The orginal game can be found at the following linkhttp://www.planet-source-code.com/xq/ASP/txtCodeId.5469/lngWId.1/qx/vb/scripts/ShowCode.htm I Take no credit for the game other than the additions i've made. Original description:A strategy game where you have to manage your planet and make it prosper, you also have to defend it from pirates. You can also activate multiplayer mode and play with a friend across a local area network. Sounds have also been implemented. (They're horrible!) This game need a lot of improvement. =) I hope you will learn something from this code. Enjoy! =)

I use these two classes to encapsulate a whole host of file oriented API calls... allowing me treat files as objects in my code and with the speed that is gained by going through the API. The clsFile class wraps around a single file, and exposes a whole host of properties of a file (and the volume it is on) including: 16 bit equivalent path, parsed filename, size, attributes (readonly, system, archive, etc), dates (created, accessed, and modified) and volume properties: label, serial no., is a cdrom, fixed disk, remote, network path, unc info, etc. (see the screen shot for the full list). Besides being a read only property class, I have modified the .Attributes enum and the .DateLastModified properties to allow changes... so that when you change the properties on the class, the corresponding properties on the file are modified. Eventually, this class could also be modified to extend functions such as Rename, Delete, Copy and Move that would work through the Windows Shell. I have the code to do this, but never bothered patching it in since in my coding, I never ran into the situation where I needed to do these actions with the file object by itself. The colFiles class acts as a collection for the clsFile class. In addition to the methods you would expect from a collection, this class also encapsulates the API functions for file searching (including recursive directory searches). If you EVER intend to use a file search in your applications, going through the API is the ONLY way to achieve this in my opinion. You'll find many examples that try to use directory list boxes to perform file scans, but these examples will be painfully slow. The API, on the other hand, is extremely fast. As fast as the built in Find/Search screen in Windows Explorer. Plus... you are able to search through paths other than your mapped drives. This covers the entire Windows Explorer directory tree (network drives, namespace extensions, etc). Don't judge this class by the screen shots before knowing that in the screen shot example, I was searching across my network which consists of a slow 10Mb hub. You'll have to try it for yourself on your set up to see why I swear by these two classes when performing seek and file property operations.
