PROBLEM: Creating a copy of a Recordset could mean using the Recordset.Clone method sometimes. However, this is not always appropriate because ADO’s Recordset.Clone method creates a Recordset which points to the same data as the original Recordset. This means that you really do not get a physically distinct copy of the original Recorsdet. Consequently, changes to the clone copy could modify the data in the original Recordset. An alternative solution would be to use a loop to append each record to a new recordset. This, however could end up being an unwieldy solution with potential performance penalties. SOLUTION: ADO 2.5 comes with a Stream object that can be used to create physically distinct copies of Recordsets. The article below demonstrates the use of the ADO 2.5 Stream object in copying Recordsets and the difference between the Recordsets created by the Recordset.Clone method and ADO 2.5 Stream object. Please see attached file.

Got extremely tired trying to find a quick and systematic way of parsing a field that contained a user's name in a variety of formats, so I created this little class that will parse out a person's name into first, middle, last, title, prefix, suffix. It can handle names like Dr. John Doe - Dr. Doe, John P - Doe, John - John P. Doe, Jr. - and a few more formats. Hope others will find this useful. Currently the class cannot handle muliple suffixes and multiple titles. If someone reworks it to make it better, please send it my way. FYI- commented all over, should be easy to read.

WhizzoMenu Control. This control uses forms,graphical effects and hard code. all you have to do is understand how to use my control to create your own menus. This control doesn't use VB's Menu system and it doesn't use Windows Menu API. This control is also customizable. See the screenshot.

With this code you can calculate the fabulous pictures obtained with the Mandelbrot-fractal. There is a popup-menu when clicking with the right mousebutton. Clicking with the left button in the image calculates a new picture.

Update: Added a new print option. This is an address label printer. It was originally created for church use and mass mailings. You can have multiple files to help organize your address; the program will remember the last 4 you have opened. You can search for a specific address in a variety of ways. It allows you to move address from one file to another (one at a time or a selected group) by opening a selected paste file. You can Import/Export address from/to text files; you pick the field delimiter (Tab, Semicolon, Comma, or Carriage Return). You can print a single address label, selected address labels, all address labels of selected zip codes, or all address labels in a file at a selected starting row and column. You can print a single page of labels beginning with the first address you select. You can use it to print nametags by selecting the print option "Print Names Only". You can create and save different printing schemes which contain label size/layouts as well as what font will be used to print. You can view/edit one address at a time or view all the address in a spreadsheet format. In the spreadsheet, you can filter the information displayed to show only the address you want. The data in the spreadsheet can be sorted by column heading in either ascending or descending order. Included with this project are several cls files, which contain a lot code that you will find very useful to use in your project such as: * Play wave files stored in a resource file. * Many screen utilities like Center Form, Vertically Fit Form to Screen, and Make on top. * File Open and File Save dialog boxes without using an OCX. * Auto match Combo Boxes. * Masked Text. * Format text as it is typed. There are two versions of the project included, PrintLabels_MsGrid.vbp and PrintLabels_SheridanGrid.vbp. PrintLabels_SheridanGrid.vbp uses the Sheridan Data Widgets and PrintLabels_MsGrid.vbp uses Microsoft's data grid control. To select a group of connected rows using the mouse and the shift key, you need to click somewhere inside the grid; to select several non-connected rows using the mouse and control key you need to click on the Record Selectors bar located on the left side of the grid. The dbgrid32.ocx can be found it on your Visual Basic CD under ?:\Common\Tools\VB\Controls. You can find the ADO version of this project at: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=36736&lngWId=1

Darrens Hotkeys. This program is to assign the windows key with another key on your keyboard to a program, so when you hit the two keys at any time while your computer is on the program assigned will open. I use it all the time. See Screenshot.

This program loops through an Access database of IP addresses and pings every one continuously. You can add, delete your own IP addresses. You can customize a status event to trigger when a time tolerance is reached. Then you can be notified of a problem. I wrote something like this years ago for our network department to alphanumerically page the on call if an IP timed out. We had servers, routers, and switches in the list. I chopped this code together from code I found here and on www.vbaccelerator.com. I have one small thing I would like to fix, that is how to add all listview’s into just 1 listwiew. If you can show me how I will fix and re-upload the code.

This program lets people send commands over msn messenger to make what ever command they send happen to that person's computer. It is not a trojan as it does not let you do bad sh1t to their computer but it will show u how to accept and carry out commands which are sent over msn messenger.

This is a dll to intercept all keyboard messages to any program in Windows (except for the ALT-TAB, CTRL-ALT-DEL and CTRL-ESC keycombo's). It uses a C++ dll found right here on PSC, I just wrapped that one into a friendly ActiveX DLL for ease-of-use.

Teaches how to store custom settings in your application to a textfile, cause its much easier than the registry. Store textentries, checkvalues, colors, filepaths and more. See Screenshot! Its easy and every beginner should know about "writeprofilestring".

We had a client who 'accidently' copied one databse table into itself causing duplicate records. Unfortunately Access only allows 10 columns in its De Duplicate wizard and we had twenty! This code allows you to pick the database you want deduplicating, lists the tables and the fields within the table so that you can chose the 'key' fields to deduplicate on. Then it creates a table within the database which contains all of the deleted duplicates from the table you chose. It assumes that you don't mind which instance of a duplicate record you want to keep and it uses Jet 4.0. Also if you run the appliaction twice on the same table you will loose all of the deleted records from the first session (it dosent create a second instance of the deleted table). It also dosen't contain Error trapping as I use Aivostso's VB Watch addin that creates error trapping for you. However, leaving that in would add superflous code so I have omitted it here. This code was wriiten on the quick but it has ben used in anger with correct results. Any constructive comments will be appriciated.
