New features: LabelStyle [was:Color properties and font properties.] I create this user control because I am tired of having to repeatedly put a label control whenever I put a textbox control. Basically, this user control is a combination of a label and a textbox control. However, I have added an optional lookup button at the right side of the control so you can use it as a lookup button. Other features include auto highlight of text inside the textbox, make ENTER key in textbox behave like pressing TAB key (ie. move focus to next control), and set keyboard shortcut to click the lookup button. Please let me know if there are any bugs.

Since many people asked me this, I made an ActiveX version of my Multiple FlexGrid project. I have added the possibility to choose the number of tables (up to 10 for now), a real time scroll and a dynamic creation of the tables. Update: it is now possible to control manually each flexgrid. In the example you can see how to connect to a database to show values in the multiple flexgrid.

*UPDATED 4/25/2003* This Is A ActiveX Control (ocx) Drop-In Solution For Programmers Who Want To Make A Quick Packet Spy. Pure Winsock API And No Dll's !! Will Only Work On NT Based Systems (nt,xp, longhorn etc)...This was coded in Visual Basic 6, So You May Have To Change A Few Things To Work In VB5...

Makes a cool button like what you see on MSDN or Microsoft's ASP.NET Web Matrix. UPDATED TO VERSION 1.5. FIXES: - Fixed when label is clicked, click event works. - Added "Option Explicit". - Fixed enabling/disabling of button.

This code makes it incredibly easy (one line to add one) to add system notification icons (aka tray icons) to your program! You can even call up Balloon Tips on compatible OSes (XP and 2000, I believe). Functions are structured to be as close to their VB counterparts as possible (BalloonTip is structured like MsgBox for example)

Shows programmers how to program visually.

** PLEASE VOTE ** The first version of my Frame control. Includes header,gradient color, ambient backcolour, differents border lines, ability to change each border line's colour separately, etc...(it's a beta version) SEE SCREENSHOT

Displays Numbers. Looks like a real LED display like the one used in Digital Clocks. (Except it offers more colors)

This is a very good example of how you can create your own custom list box. This code shows how can it be done but its not xactly a user control. the code is undestandable and the listbox is very flaxible. It uses a class to initialise the list. Hope u like it and drop a vote if u like it. (plz dont take this as a perfect project, I designed it to only show a listbox can be made. If u can enhance it plz share it with me}

This is the XP Command Button recreated by me. There are 7 custom borderstyles and of course the original windows xp borderstyle. Like the original button it responds to the mouse entering and leaving. This button has the Default and Cancel Button property so it can be the default button. It also reacts very similarly to the original buttons. It has accesskeys set up so that any alt combo can make the control click (like standard buttons) You can choose gradient background or solid background (solid is fast, while gradient is slower) The great thing about this control is that I have seen other Xp controls and i have spent so much time making my one fast aswell as good. It can redraw at 2000 times a second (with gradient background) on my Pentium III 866 MHz. Similar controls I have tried redraw at 20 times a second. There are transparent corner pixels now and a few other things I changed which I don't remember.

Ever wanted to have function keys in your application (F1, F2, F3 etc..)? Here is the very simple and streight forward solution to it. Moreover, its very very solid to impliment. No API calls, no HOOKS grabage. Just use form functions. Download code and see the instructions on form.

This is an alteration to a control I found on freevbcode.com. You can set cells to checkboxes, comboboxes, textboxes or a button. I previously submitted a version here. I have now added the ability to set the check mark on load by setting the cell value to "C". I do not know how to save the colors on the control. I will leave that to someone else. This could very easily be adapted to fill the grid from a database. (I resubmitted this as new since I dont think it overwrote the original)

This Usercontrol it draws the Control's container Transparent but not the controls inside.Few lines easy to understand and very fast. No Api Calls

MsgLink - An Inter-Application Messaging Control v2. This is a complete and functional control that uses the Copy Data Structure to pass data between applications that utilize this control. It allows you to pass numeric data, strings, dates, currency, in fact all data types except variants, including arrays and udts, and arrays of udts (except arrays of variants and strings). Possibly could be extended to handle arrays of pointers to the data (strings and variants).

Added the Office Xp look to Richard Wells' Statusbar. Also added AutoSize to the panels. Here is the link to Richards Pevious submition http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=44379&lngWId=1 The statusbar more closely resembles Visual Studio Dotnet's statusbar than Office XP's.

Basically, this control is a "progress circle," rather than a progress bar. It enables the programmer to take a rather high amount of ustomization into a "progress circle" that will help to enhance the interface of their program. Unique Features: - Ultra-fast graph rendering - Was tested on a 166 mHz Pentium with 32mb RAM, 1mb video memory, on Windows 95a, on a 400x400 graph. - The result of the above test was that the circle was drawn almost instantaneously: It took an average of 80-100 ticks (milliseconds) for each test! Now talk about speed! - Primitive but powerful customization - 7 different Fill Styles - 16.7 million Fill & Outline Colors (plus system colors!) - 2 types of graphs drawn (experimental) You MUST note, however, that even though I have tested it rather thoroughly for bugs, it is hard to cure bugs between XP and 95 (the two platforms I tested it on). You have any trouble, explain the problem, and explain how you fixed it, or if you need help. I hope you enjoy it!

Ever get frustrated that when you change the background color of a form the forms border doesn't change as well. Now it can.

Do you want to input only numbers in a textbox? and just want a few lines of code ?Well this code is for you....See it for yourself....Want to know more of my codes then email me....

As a OS X lover, I know there is alot of you out there also! For you people who seek that wonderful aqua look in your applications, I have a control set to offer you! The controls in THIS set include: Button, checkbox, and titlebar! The screenshot you see is not a Windows XP skin, it is all the actual controls! You may have seen my other control set on PSC, the KDE Control Set, which I had planned to release another set, but never did. For this set, I promise you youll see another set! Look at this submission to find out what I have planned for the next set! Also note that the GIF screenshot that I took reduced the quality significantly, the actual controls have excellent quality!
