This ActiveX Control (OCX) will create a simple interface so the user can enter a determined time. It then validates the time entered and will always return a correct time. This control can be very useful if you are writing a program like an Alarm Clock or something like this. It can be, also, very instructive for those who want to learn how to program an ActiveX Control.

This project demonstrates you how to build an alert box like MSN Messenger has. It is displayed in the bottom-right corner of your screen. When an alert is shown while another one is still visible, it is placed on top of the existing box. By moving the mousecursor over the text it appears as a hyperlink. And to get a little bit of the Microsoft feeling I've added a simple gradient found elsewhere on PSC.

This is an advanced ListView Control. It Populates a listview control using the given path with the files and folders. The control retains most listview properties, events and methods plus: UserControl.Path (Read/Write) Property that specifies the path to populate UserControl.Populate Method to populate the control Feel free to enhance it!

PLEASE Vote for me!!!!! Magic Windows ver 1.0 Have you ever wanted to have a form that would slide out from behind another form, like a tray? Well now you can. Simply Drop this control onto a form(the one you will use as the tray) and from anywhere in code you call 2 methods. One will Slide the form out, The other retracts the form back. You can set the "tray" form to slide out to the right, left, top. or bottom. You can set it to slide out on top of the calling form, or behind the calling form.

Visual Basic will allow us to add control array to a Form at run time using the load statement. However with this code I will try to explain a way where you can dynamically add a control array to a Form at run time, and then catch the events generated by the added controls.

Do you also think, that the normal CommandButton is a bit ugly? Here is a Button of the next generation...check it out!

This is a decent example on how to skin a form. I made 10 skins and Commented every line in this project so you can see what's going on and how BitBlt works from top to bottom. If you don't know BitBlt that well or at all, this is a perfect example for you. Please RATE this and soon I'll make a v2.0 of this. And if you make a good skin for this, E-mail me it at: [email protected]! :)

Do you wan't to make your controls really flat, like the ones in Office Toolbars (TextBoxes, CommandButtons, ComboBoxes, etc.)? Then this is what you need! Please, do Vote! By voting, you'll make the programmers efforts well spent!

It's a cool slider

My code here will allow you take a screen shot of the entire screen.

Evenly spaces an image as many times as will fit on a form

This code shows how to create a multimedia type rollover menu that changes text and graphics on the form. This uses a rect function to recognize the rollover hotspots. (A MUST SEE)

Source code of a Control, subclassing the MSFlexGrid, to create a Hierarcical Grid (like Treeview). But, as in a MSFlexGrid, you can set individual fonts, colors, even pictures on any cell.

Captures Screen as fast as it is possible, I myself have used that old method of sending a PrntScreen Key deal, but this is HOT, it just uses Bitblt... Might come in handy for that guy who is making BOS or whatever its called. Capturing the screen though any other method is only doomed to be slower :)

This includes the source code Loading a picture, Rotating a Picture 45 Degrees, Flipping a Picture Horizontally, Flipping a Picture Vertically and Saving it After! Very usefull if your working on your own picture program. I made a nice layout for this and Commented everything. Please, I worked hard on this for yous So check it out then Rate it....

This is an enhanced Start menu from the BoS project. I pulled out the explorer functionality and made it standalone. New features include: more natural response to mouse rollover, you can set the font, font size and height of the items, the menu gets the real text width and height at runtime so it can adapt to any font, font size or style. Item spacing can be adjusted by adjusting picItem(0) text and icons are centered vertically at run time. Must See. Thanks to Brian for his COOL BoS. I feel this functionality with its enhancements can be really useful in your projects.

When your form is resized, some of the controls contained there will be clipped (partially seen). This code tries to eliminate that by resizing all the controls in relation to the forms resized extent. The main routine will just have to be added at the FORM_RESIZE. Also supports MDI Forms. Enjoy!

This is an great example of how to use BitBlt to make a simple Animation either for a game or for a application. Every line commented in this and I tell you exactly what's going on. So check it out, the Screen Shot pretty much Explains it all...

this coding simply is for beginners and allows you to move your form without a titlebar, or with you own custom titlebar!!!

Gives your users the look and feel of a help window. I use this method because I love Visual Basic, but with the run-time libraries required, the application download is large enough without adding help files to it. This way, I can store my help files on-line. This is also handy because I can update the help documentation without the user having to download any updates or patches!
