Ever wanted to see a picture behind flexgrid text (not a single cellpicture!)? This project is a little part of my custom grid control. Picture idea was given by a questioner Experts-Exchange site. Please let me know your ideas and let me know if you want to have a more flexible FlexGrid control code. Enjoy. Suat Ozgur

Creating bar and line charts is fairly well documented on the MSDN CD, but 2D XY (what I call XY scatter graphs) are not. This example demonstrates a method to not only create 2D XY graphs, but also plot multiple series on the same chart. The things that need to be done are pretty esoteric, including using multiple DataGrid columns for each series, removing null points from one or more series, etc., which makes this kind of graph very unique. This example also illustrates some other properties and methods that can be useful for other types of charts.

A VB control that, when placed on a form, causes it to act like the Taskbar (minus the Start Menu).

This proggy will set the text in your label box on fire! =)

The purpose of this extremely small code is to take a form within your application and keep it on top of all the forms within your application. (Modal Forms) Note however that when you use this code, it will make all other forms in your application inaccessible until that form is closed. This is great for times when you have a form like starting a new game, or a form that tells about your program that you want to stay on top and "stop" your program until it is closed.

The purpose of this code is to expand on what Ian Ippolito stated in an early post with the same code. I noticed that his same code did not state all the versions that can take advantage of this code. This code will center a form on the screen, not taking into consideration the taskbar. Yes, there are other ways of achieving this, api being one of them, but who wouldn't rather have a smaller, simpler code?

Wipes with SIN-Effects a Picture(BMP) transparentlx over a Background-Picture(BMP).Both Picture can be loaded at runtime. Based on different Source from Planet-Source-Code-Website.

Demonstrates basic fuctions such as Add, Remove & Clear; but also some advanced funtions that use API tricks to find the index value for a string (or partial string); change an item in the list without knowing the index value in advance; and display a tooltip containing the complete name for items too wide to fit in the visible box (and only those items! Even checks for the existence of a scrollbar on the listbox). The comments in Instructions.bas will walk you though all the functions, and the code is heavily commented for the novice.
