What? Another marquee? Yep. Put into 1 class and 1 usercontrol file. Can contain separate text "blocks" each with it own forecolor. Use the mouse to drag the display from left to right (or right to left) during the scrolling (just in case you missed out something that scrolled away). Continuous scrolling (does NOT wait if the last block is out of view, then start the first block, BUT glues the first block to the last one, so you see no break). Can place separator between blocks. It looks like the BBC News ticker. Click event on each text "block", scroll speed, colours, font, etc. Just download and see for yourself. Need more convincing? Someone quoted this is the best marquee on PSC yet....

Analog Clock control where you can use your mouse to rotate the hours and minutes. Ideal to obtain time the graphical way from the user. Can also be used as a simple running time display. Left-Click and drag the minutes, Right-Click and drag the hours. Colours, fonts and some other attributes can be changed (look and see). This is just a usercontrol (ctl+ctx) file to include with your project, if you really want to, make your own ocx from it.

This is yet another submission for printing, loading from the file and saving to the file from Listview, ListBox, ComboBox and all one Forms textboxes controls. There are couple changes for part of this code. Check the explanations, please.

This code lets you to Print, Save to file, Load data from file to/from ListBox or ListView object.

This is something I made after seeing people request a way to make transparent forms. The nice thing about this though, is that it makes it so that all the controls are still visible! And it works with transparent shapes and lines too! This is a great way to make your programs stand out from the rest, you have to see it.

This code simply takes a picture of your desktop or a screenshot. I guess if you wanted to you could use this to view the desktop of a computer over a network, although that would be a bit slow. I hope this code is of some interest to some people Hope this helps.

As far as I know this only works in vb5 and above. I submited this code previously, but the link I provided was incorrect, and that fact has just now come to my attention, so I am now putting this back up. You can download it either from here or my site. Either is fine. To get it from my site go to http://www.vbtutor.com/downloads/docking.zip or just download it here.

This code allows a ListView control to be sorted by Number or Date without having to use APIs (except to lock the screen)

This control, when placed on a form, will allow you to dynamically create menus at runtime. I have included the code for the OCX and a simple test harness.

This example demonstrates what most people using Graphics in VB really needs, the use of Transparent Images in your programs that can overlap each other (using BitBlt), like GIF images do for example! This is the Ultimate Demonstration Program and it's REALLY easy to use. All the lines have been commented and turned into functions so you can easily use them in your programs. The program also shows how you can flip your images horizontal and vertical with just a mouse-click and includes a really fast code for creating masks (which you need when dealing with Transparent Images). This is a "must have" code not only for the beginners but also for EVERYONE using Visual Basic!

This is a class module that allows a "Rebar", or an Internet Explorer style toolbar to be made. It subclasses the Rebar and can trigger events when the rebar is moved, resized, clicked, mouse moved, and a lot more. The rebar can hold any VB control, even UserControls. THIS IS NOT MY CODE! I am simply passing Ramon's code, which can be found at www.zonecorp.com His code made this sample possible! You can e-mail Ramon at [email protected]

Laser 3D 2 includes all the features of the popular Laser 3D Effect, as well as three new transitions: Wierd draw, Weird Draw Slow, and Printer Scan. The code was translated, and FULLY COMMENTED (every line!). You must see this to believe it!

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!

A simple Bezier spline implementation. Allows the user to select control 'points on a picture box and then draw a Bezier curve between them. NEW!! - User can now move control points!!

With this code you can place any Icon in the title bar of any Window, just by reffering to a .ico file or to the position of the Icon in a DLL.

To automatically resize an image control in a frame control to view at an acceptable size. The full image is on screen even if the image is bigger than the screen.

Displays a basic analog clock on a form. CREDIT FOR THE ORIGINAL CODE GOES TO: Boriza I enjoyed his code so much I had to add a couple of quick improvements. Incrementally uncomment the code lines in the Form_Load event for different clock positions on the form.

This code gives the "enter" key the same functionality as the "tab" key in a vb form. When the user presses the "enter" key, it moves the focus to the next control, based on the tab index order. Don't forget to set the KeyPreview property of the form to True. (My thanks to Pennington. His TabToEnter2 code laid the foundation for this code.)
