Replace plain rectangle tooltip with a Balloon shaped Tool Tip!

This just shows how to access CommandButton's, Label's etc.. from another Command or label. So when you click Form1's Command, you can actually be clicking Form2's command. Very useful for shortcuts.

This proyect has two parts: 1) 3D Transparent Sphere, and 2) Texture Sphere, WITHOUT OCX, DLL, API,... Enjoy it and I'm sure this will help you to understand 3D Programming. Good Luck.

It is a neat way to edit the "display only" MSFlexgrid without locking the user into the TextBox and still permitting "multiple cell entries". Slightly revised and some dead code and typos elimination. Posted as a .vbp & .frm file. Unzip, then load the .vbp file. Added a couple of functions.(9-14-99) (9-23-99) MAJOR ADDITIONS: - (1)In-Cell Cursor control,(2) ADD, DEL, INS, EXTRACT Columns or Rows, (3)"" recovers from accidental OVERTYPE. - Try finding that in MSDN! Please send comments as to useability! 1-4-2001 Backspace annoyance fixed!

This code resizes a form and it's controls (and fonts) according to the users resolution.

Gets how many times your form was loaded

Being optimistic, I have made a code that will resize an image, allowing the user to save the image as a thumbnail. Here's hoping I've solved problems. Even if it doesn't work for you, it should give you a small idea of how it's done.

Ever wanted to create a form with a shape defined by a picture? If so, this is what you have been looking for! With this simple example, you will be able to use any standard image to define the shape of a form. Along with the example, there is an ReadMe HTML file that explains how to create your own Image Shaped Forms! This is a new, improved version of my previous upload, with come corrections for WinNT!

I worked again on this control and, as suggested, I combined several chart types. Also, I introduced the mean value to be displayed or not. I'm continuing in developing it, for example to allow series and Gantt style. Thank you again for your interest and vote.

UPDATE(2002-12-26): Version 1.3.2 Fixes incorrect painting and adds absolute positioning for tiled bitmaps. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-12): Version 1.3.1 Fixes gradient fills under legacy OSes (NT 4.0 and Win 95). __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-05): Version 1.3 Label edit fully implemented! Brand new subclasser working ok in MS Office and VS.NET so this one should fix the problems. Out-of-focus mouse wheel support (Outlook style). OLE Drag&Drop of groups implemented. cButton.Key property synced with parent collection. New properties: LabelEdit, AllowGroupDrag, GroupHilightIdx. Additional background style: ucsGrdTileBitmap. Bugfixes (including cMemDC). Help file updated. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-08-09): Version 1.2 Automatic OLE Drag&Drop fully implemented!!! New properties: UseSystemFont, FlatScrollArrows, WrapText. Additional background styles: ucsGrdAlphaBlend, ucsGrdStretchBitmap. Bugfixes and new samples. Help file updated. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-07-24): Version 1.1 Help file included. Additional background options. cMemDC bugfixes. VB bugfixes: now icons can also be 256 colors and truecolor. __________________________________________________ This is a fairly complete emulation of outlook bar. This control is fully customizable and can emulate both outlook xp and 2000 button bar (see "more samples") and then goes beyond. Control customization is accessible through couple of property pages. Featured is a hierarchical model (much like CSS) for defining formats of control elements (including hover/pressed/selected formats on group/items) which can be persisted (an .obf file) and a polymorphic object model for representation of group and item buttons data. Multi-line captions, multi-line tooltips (API), large&small icon styles, single/double/fixed bordes, horizontal/vertical gradients. Help is to be done (generated:-)) shortly. OLEDrag&Drop is in its infancy but still workable. Also, here you have it: the *realtime* color picker re-submitted as part of the outlook bar property pages -- check it out it's fast! Also, check out the error handler (robust one) and the DebugMode object leak info system. Has been checked on win2k for GDI leaks (win9x to be done, anyone?). This is in response to recent submissions of "commercial quality" and "industrial strength" software to this site. Although not complete the project could easily become commercial one. Greetings go to: Ariad Software (now www.cyotek.com), vbAccelerator.com (great inspiration), and Carles P.V. (for his controls submissions:-)). Read readme.txt for the build procedure. Please report bugs and problems and leave your votes!

It creates menu's dynamically at runtime, from the menubar itself to menus, and submenus. This is all done via an activex dll, that can be added to any project. The code acts like the treeview control, as if the menu's are nodes for easy application. Full source code for dll included.

This 7 segment LED control has a simple code interface for displaying standard 7 segment characters. It's expandable to do anything you want. Just set the dim and bright colors, the character to display and you have it! Please vote, even if you don't like it.

Just a few fixes added to this one. I made it easier to select the colors. Now you just change the "Color" property to any of the enums that popup. It does the rest for you. The Demo will illustrate that as well as the screen shot. Don't worry, I'm working on scaling. :-) PLEASE vote!!

NEW UPDATE! I have now made it so you can use an 8 character string to effectively "turn on" certain segments in the display!! It includes ALL the functionality as the previous versions as well! CHECK IT OUT. Please vote.

Let's say, for example, that you have a database with all your clients. Now, you want to select just a few of them and get all the information stored on the database about them. The ideal interface to solve this problem would be to have a List Box with all your clients on one side and an empty List Box on the other side. You could, then, select the clients that you wanted just by double-clicking on their name. The selected clients would move to the empty List Box. When you finished with the selections, you would be able to access a Recordset with only the clients that you selected! ____________________________________________________ Sounds good? Well, this ActiveX Control does just that! ____________________________________________________ >> If you ever tried to create an interface using two List Boxes you will truly appreciate this Control. Here is a list of the main features: ____________________________________________________ * It will connect to a password protected Database. ____________________________________________________ * The users can navigate on the Control with their keyboard. ____________________________________________________ * It will list the records according to the specified field. ____________________________________________________ * The users can select multiple items. ____________________________________________________ * A Recordset will be generated with the selected clients! ____________________________________________________ >> I worked as hard on the user interface as I did on the programmer interface. The Property Pages are very useful! ____________________________________________________ * You will be able to browse to the folder were your Database is! ____________________________________________________ * As soon as you provide a database name, the Property Page will list all Tables on a Combo Box so you can easily select a Table! ____________________________________________________ * As soon as you select the Table, the Property Page will list all the Fields from this Table on Combo Boxes so you can easily pick one Field according to the situation! ____________________________________________________ >> What you can learn from this submission: ____________________________________________________ * How to connect to a Database, a Recordset, a Table or a Query Definition. ____________________________________________________ * How to create a temporary Query Definition. ____________________________________________________ * How to create a SQL statement. ____________________________________________________ * How to sort a Recordset. ____________________________________________________ * How to list all Tables found on a Database and all Fields found on a Table! ____________________________________________________ * How to find out if a Field is a Primary Key or if it is a numeric Field! ____________________________________________________ * How to sort an array on numeric order using the "bucket sort" algorithm. ____________________________________________________ * How to sort a "two dimensional" array on alphabetical order using the "Bubble" algorithm. ____________________________________________________ * How to find the width of a string in Twips or Pixels! ____________________________________________________ * How to add a horizontal Scroll Bar to a List Box and how to find out if a List Box needs a horizontal Scroll Bar! ____________________________________________________ * This ActiveX Control comes with a nice Common Dialog Box Module! ____________________________________________________ This ActiveX Control does a few tasks that, at first glance, look very simple. However, it took me almost a month to finish it. So, please, give me your vote and post some comments. There are literally dozens of reasons to download this ActiveX Control! Go ahead and do so!!

Lots of Features. Includes Currency Formatting, Numeric Validations. Functions as a text box or Number Box (Toggle a Switch). Forces All Upper Case, Auto Highlights, Follows Insert Mode, Tabs on Enter Key. Neatly Arranged Property pages (I suggest you strip them out to lighten the load if you dont want to lug them around). It works great for me..I hope someone out there finds this usefull (Comments, Enhancement Requests, and..unfortunately...bug reports, are all welcome) Enjoy!!
