Creates Office XP Style Toolbar using image controls and shape. very lite. just try it. comments to [email protected]
I GUARANTEE this is the BEST custom scrollbar you will find here on PSC. Has 6 preset bevel profiles, 3 mouse states (Normal, Mouse Hover, and Mouse Down), and you may use pictures in place of each of them giving you endless possibilities. The code is not commented yet but I will get to it soon and reupload it when I'm done. But this code is VERY clean and easy to follow. Please vote, I worked very hard on this.
Three self-drawn bevelled controls, no bitmaps used to create the full 3D effect. BUTTON control usable as command, option or check button. NUMERIC DISPLAY control with built-in interchangeable Base display, Display format, Angle Units and others, suitable for use as a calculator display. WHEEL control, this is a vast update of an ealier submission, may be used in place of scrollers, sliders, up-down control and progress-bar. This a beta version only, Property Pages have not yet been constructed and documentation needs to be expanded. Whether you like, dislike or hate this, please VOTE and reply with CONSTRUCTIVE comments.
Combo Box Tips: Often I'm getting different questions on COMBOBOX from colleagues & friends. And finally I decided to include some of the questions and make a sample so that I could share this sample as a reference program. Most of the time questions are very simple but its normal, simple things are difficult to remember ;-) 1. How to Sort in the combo 2. Select only combo (like asp) 3. Putting data field behind the text displayed (like asp) 4. How to load default value 5. Sorted combo while inserting Item-Data 6. How to put string values as Item-Data 7. How to use more than 2 Item-Data I have tried to include more common questions and there answer in this sample,I hope this sample could able to answer some of your question and you find is useful for your purpose. Thanks for your feedback.
This project contains a form with command button to make the form transparent, round or oval.
This Function checks if a specified Form is loaded by looping through the forms collection it returns TRUE if it is and FALSE if it is not you can decide what you want according to the return value e.g accessing its properties or methods or controls ,...
Just pass Connection String and Query String and Get Data in the List View
Many tips (and trick) tell us that if we want the textbox control ignore the character which is not numeric character, then we can just put the code that shown in KeyPress event procedure below. But, sometimes we forgot that although we have put the code in KeyPress event procedure, user still can input the alpha character to textbox control by doing copy and Paste to textbox. So, here is another tips to fix the problem. I hope this helpful.
This control allows your users to change the label captions of your fields at run time. I think this is a unique aproach and concept to customized legends. A lot of my customers sometimes don't agree with the captions I use on certain forms (nitty gritty:) so I sat down one afternoon and cooked this activex. Is not very commented but the code is very simple and easy to follow. This is a quicky control, and if you like it then I will try and improve it. This is the very first time I upload a code to planet source and any comments will be highly appreciated and motivate me for more uploads. Thanks !!
Aw yeah!!! Check this button out!!! It has great look on Win98, Me, NT, 2000 & especially XP!!!! Aw yeah!!!!! Check out the preview!!!
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. Please vote. I have spent a long time on this and I bope that you all like it.
This Usercontrol contains no other controls(eg. lines, shapes) whatsoever, and is drawn entirely by API functions. It is very lighweight and uses very few ressources from the computer. Please vote for me.
Alphanumeric LCD Control with multiple foreground and background colors, fast or slow printing, option to pad lines with 'spaces'. Regular & Bold 'font', 2 levels of brightness. 13 pre-defined background colors (or 240 custom) and 7 background colors. Inspired by Peter Wilson's "Vacuum Fluorescent Display Simulator" (In fact I based the 'regular' graphics on his graphics.) Some characters added/redone and new 'bold' font. Colors tinted at runtime, not pre-made (for size and flexibility). Also adapted a bit of code by Kamilche (Load picture from byte array) to load JPGs directly from the resource file. Enjoy the code, and please comment/vote.
The best progress bar on PSC: it's fast, it looks cool and it's stable. All you need when it comes to showing a progress. Includes: 1) colors and colorfades! 2) use any font, make it appears as you want 3) you can use seven different borderstyles 4) make the bar grow up, down, right or left 5) Blending (changes color opacity or CosSin mode makes weird colors!) 6) Set the caption just like you want it to be 7) ManualRefresh for optimal usage: if you change colors a lot or do other big changes at a time, you might want to refresh the bar only when you wish 8) Min, Max and Value as big or small as you want 9) You can change parent easily with SetParent 10) enough events: make it a command button as well! 11) clear, optimized code: learn how things can be done fast in VB. Also great example on how to make an ActiveX control with VB. If you like it, please vote & rate :)

Make any Object/Form Transparnt & non-squared, so Powerfull and Easy
Just a simple Splash screen that fades in Via the Alpha transparency. This is intended to be put into your \Templates\Forms\ directory so that you can simply Add>Forms>Fading Splash Form
Enables the drag reorder of listitems within a listbox. No API, very simple code.
Simply and easily resize all the controls on any form by use of a reusable class. Set the different modes for the Left, Top, Width and Height properties of controls by entering 4 numbers into their Tag property (a number for Left, a number for Top, a number for Width and a number for Height). There are 4 different modes: Do nothing: the resize code wont touch properties with this mode. Proportional: control property will be resized according to the forms change. Static change: the control property will move with the form. Limited static change: if the form is made too small then the control wont go off the screen (still in testing stage). For example; a label with a tag of '0011' will not change its left or top property, and the width and height will change proportionally. The next release will be even more improved with the Limited Static Change fully tested and an add-in to easily configure tag properties. Please vote and leave constructive critisism.
