CHECK THIS OUT! This is a really cool effect. Stand in the middle of a 3D world and use the mouse to rotate the camera around. All running at over 60 frames per second!!! The pictures look beautiful (thanks to Craig Nisbet - it's his artwork, but my programming). How is such a high res 3D image made to run at 60 FPS in VB? Well, I cheated ofcourse! I just used a cylinder and wrapped and image round it, then put the camera in the centre of this cylinder. But the effect looks just the same as if I were using the best quality 3D graphics using thousands of polys! You really can't see the difference. Plus, like my last submission it has the advantage of compression - why use a huge 3D file when you can just use a jpeg? This demo also features both hardware and software rendering, (BTW software = very slow) and adjustable rendering quality. There will be many more features added but I won't be able to release the source code of the final version, sorry. I hope that you agree that this deserves a decent vote, if not then please tell me why not so I can improve the program. Enjoy!

IRCFileTool is a complete application that scans IRC for offer bots and the files they are offering. It lists them all and lets the user download them. At it's core is a Winsock control handling an IRC connection complete with DCC sends. It could easily be modified to function as an IRC bot.

Source Code Routine Add In's A Visual Basic add-in which provides 2 functions. Both functions scan the current code module and build a list of routine names. From this list you can select the routine on which the function is to be performed. The first function will add comments at the beginning of the selected routines- including lines for parameters and return value descriptions. The second function will add basic error checking to the selected routines. Note that for this function, the routine list will only include routines which do not already contain some type of error checking. Various bug fixes made: 27/10/2000

Comments and adds error handling to your projects

This calculates the average time taken for a progressbar to get to its current percentage and calculates how much time it will take for the progressbar to reach 100%

Code Library will save and/or recall frequently used pieces of text/code. Files can be opened simply by clicking on them in the file listbox. Lots of other features that can be used in other projects. Updated October 2000

DAO based database program with many features in it, I also noticed after searching around I seen no databases that supported saving gaming info so I made one witht he ability for saving game info such as favorite game, gaming handle, clan name, clan rank... Also added the ability to change the color of almost virtually everything you can see. This is my first database I made or even attempted so don't expect much from this but I think for a first attempt this came out da!mn good... I know my error handling lacks a lot and I think I will be implementing the ability to email from this program, search may be implemented but I never had a use for a search option in all databases I used so thats a maybe... Also I plan on adding a user login feature, I tried to comment on as much as possible this is basically for those looking to break into databases since I think I successfully created a pretty good first database. **Extra Cool features** Double clicking on the email text box will open up your email application and fill in the To: field with the contacts email address, double click any phone area option to call up a form in which you can type in the contacts number and call them (example taken from the sample that comes with vb6, i just thought it would make an excellent option... Also your pc must be connected to the same line as your phone line in order to work) and double clicking on the Homepage Title or Homepage URL will open your browser and take you to the contacts homepage...I also included a timer feature so you can specify any hour or minute you wish and set the alarm then it will display a message box at the specified time reminding you to complete your task...

This Program generates ADO code and SQL Statements without the use of an ADO Data Control. It is available as a stand alone executable or as a VB-6.0 AddIn.

Avoiding runtime errors caused by the "new" operator using exception handling with simple three different methods

Expose your app's objects / A true plugin model. This sample will teach you how to expose classes from an ActiveX EXE to other Applications. I felt that a Main App / Plugin relationship (like in Photoshop) will be best suited to showcase this cool solution. This is how it works: When an object gets created based on a class from an ActiveX Exe it gets created in its own memory area (Multiple objects based on the same class cannot share their data). In C++ that object registers itself with the ROT (Running Object Table) so that anybody who needs to, can access that instance of the object. For instance Excel. When Excel is running you can refer to the running instance from VBA/VB, and access any data that's present in the spread sheet. However VB based objects lack that functionality. Activex EXE created in VB will NOT get registered in the ROT! (That's why you can't use GetObject on VB made ActiveX's ;-) ) Anyhow, here is a solution that will register your ActiveX EXE in the ROT, and you will be able to reference the running instance of your object from any other application. Please use this sample as follows: Extract Files from Zip (use folder names checked) run MainApp.EXE (ActiveX EXE) click on the OPEN icon load the supplied BMP wait for a few sec....(sorry the image handling is awfully slow, I didn't wanted to deal with DIB's for simplicity reasons) plugin Button should be enabled by now (this calls a ShellExecute and runs a regular EXE (our plugin) In the plugin click on GetData (this will transfer the image from the main app) click on modify image (thanx Rog3r) click on Close Plugin & Transfer data (this will transfer the modified image back to the main app) Voila The benefits: If you expose your app's objects up front, you can later on create any plugins/addons you want without modifying the original app. This is my first contribution to planet-source-code. Please let me know what you think (bad/good, anything is welcome) and like always VOTE. Thanx Raf

This example shows how to implement multiple command line arguments or switches. The arguments passed to the application are shown in a listbox on the screen. Help is provided on how to run the program with arguments in VB. Use arguments ion the form "-h -c-t" (without the quotes)

This is an example to Object Oriented aggregation in Visual Basic. The example uses classes to emulate getting info from the selected item and displaying it.

This is a Internet Explorer complete with forward and back buttons. Also when you maximise it the Broswer expands with it! PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS CODE SO I CAN IMPROVE IT.

DLL that allows you to write RTF code that is compatable with Windows WordPad. Use this object to convert HTML to RTF, or to generate RTF file on the fly!!!! Don't bother looking anywhere else for this hot little piece of code ( I spent hours on the net looking, finally I gave up and wrote it myself!) Look here for future updates, up next... picture, and table support! Added Bonus: Object that enumerates through the fonts on your system and gets the Picth, and Font Family for each one!!!!!!!!

This little piece of code retrieves a CD's Identification Number. This is very useful, e.g. if you're making a CD Player that needs to get access to the CDDB. I got this code from a friend of mine, and i just remake it because it didn't work properly, and added some comments to it. Hope you like it! : )

Returns the last day of a specified month. Takes into account leap years.

This program is great FAKE(!!!!!!!!!!!!) Virus Installer. Ir will make some hardrive noises.. then once it gets to 100% boom! blue screen 3 times, and freeze... This only works in win98, and i haven't tested it in winME... anyway, the only way to stop it (before it gets to 100) is to click the % sign, not teh numbers, the actaul % sign... have fun with this.. don't use it the wrong way.. by all means scare the hell outta your room mate or something, but don't take it to far! vote!!! please...

This simple control simplifys the hotline tracker protocol so that just a few lines of code can list a tracker.

Well, this is an interesting bit of code. Instead of trying to catch the drag drop files, we're trying to initiate them. This is just a simple little bit of code that works just like Winzip or something, by drag dropping a file! Uses those strange OLE event type things. Enjoy!
