This module allows you to find a file or files on your computer without using a single API. It looks for files type that you specific and return their name, path, size and date. It is good for program such as Anti-Virus or any program that requires access to every file in the system. This code also allows you to enter Wild Card Characters "*" so you can search for files of the same type or file(s) that you don't know how to spell.
Like IE4 and IE5, this module when setup with your TextBoxes, will make repetitive data entries easier for your users. For example, if "hello" had been typed into the TextBox earlier, at a later date, all the user has to do is type "h" and the rest of the word will appear. Just in the style of IE4. This stores all the keywords in a file named after the TextBox specified. It automatically adds new words to this list when the user presses Enter on the keyboard. Even though I've uploaded it as a ZIP, it's not because it's hard, but to make it easier to understand how it's working.....
Code shows how to use a combo box and how to display certain messsages when a certain item is selected. Includes Threed32.ocx which is required for this example. (Note: This example is a F.A.Q on Sub7, this file in no way contains the virus or promotes the use of it, simple a F.A.Q on how to remove it and such.)
Turns labels into links which when clicked, load the contents of the caption as the URL into a webbrowser.
This is an Addition to my earlier search function. This is an ActiveX control. It has 9 search functions, inculding rich text box searches, and text box searches, DAO table searches, and Find and Replace searchs for all three. Has a readme file, that explanes all. If you find an error, let me know. This is my first try at making Active X controls. Please leave feedback!
Man i have been thinking on what to make. Then it hit me. a encypter. not just anyone but one that lets you chose the password. I gaurantee you cant crack these encyptions. good for begginers and intermediate. Please rate this. I worked and i need to know what you think thank you.
This is new improved Scrolling Text Control. I added almost all proparties of standart TextBox and a new one: Scroll - that start/stop scrolling. It also allows you to choose three predefined size of text. Enjoy it.
Another PI program. This one allows you to get PI for any number of decimal places up to 1000. It doesn't calculate PI, it is hard coded in! All you do is pass the number of decimal places required.
I'm re-posting this because I've fixed a few minor things and made a few minor improvements. This demo runs at about 70 fps on my Pentium 3 450mhz. One executable runs in a window, the other runs fullscreen. It is a simple textured tunnel effect. The texture is wrapped around the tunnel and the bitmap is scrolled to simulate motion through the tunnel or rotation in the tunnel. The code involves methods that provide for very fast graphical manipulation, including lookup tables with mathematical formulas and pointers to a bitmap. The code includes gaussian blurring to smooth the texture and pointers to quickly change the screen. You can change the tunnels texture in the code. To exit the program, double click on the screen. Please vote for this project and leave a comment! I don't care if you give it a bad vote, just vote what you think... I really like to see what people think of it in general.
Just like netcaptor except I ran into a few snags I couldnt figure out. Its IE in tabs. Includes full favorites code(retrieves favorites in menu) retrieves the typer urls for drop down box like in ie. Does a search and favorites side bar just like ie. Has an animated icon in the upper right hand corner. Opens new windows in new tabs. Has unfinished code to block popups by url or caption(if you are advanced enough you will find this part). ALL I ASK IS THAT ALL CODE REVISIONS BE SENT TO ME!!! (UNLESS OCX'S OR RESOURCES HAVE BEEN ADDED) ONLY CODE REVISIONS. THANKS! Try to fix the bug with the popup windows being really big(if the popup window is large it messes up for some reason) but if you make the window redraw by minimizing and maximizing it everythings ok..) I couldnt seem to fix this so maybe someone else can =] Just to clear a few things up this is only compatible with vb 6. Also to run the exe you need all of the vb6 runtimes. IF you still cant get it to run you can download the full package setup and all at http://elucidsoftware.hypermart.net/netab.zip
This is just to show you how to append a file to an executable. Could be handy if you wanna save maybe a tag to your exe file. Have not test it with very large files but small file works perfectly.
Simulates a working VCR, is pretty pointless but im submittin it cuz i like the effect i had created with the fading labels, which i did in such a small amount of code.
Direct X-Files is a really cheap game I made very quickly, mainly because I downloaded the X-files theme tune and I felt that I needed to find a use for it so I made this X-files game in a few hours (so don't expect anything amazing). Alot of the code has been re-used from my old DirectX-games. However, if you are new to DirectX, I think that you will find the code very useful as it demonstates the basics of DirectDraw and some really basic DirectMusic. If you are not new to DirectX the code is still interesting because it uses the Sine function to make UFO's fly in wavy line and it also does a cool lightning effect from the lone cloud which you are supposed to dodge. The aim of the game is to shoot at the UFO's. Even if you don't learn from the code, download it anyway just for a laugh. The game is probably far too easy so if you get bored just walk under a cloud just as it is about to stike lightning and watch your skeleton light up as you cry out about how your burning to death (that means the game has sound FX too!). If you learn from or laughed at this game that please vote to show your appreciation of my efforts. THIS GAME REQUIRES DIRECTX 7. I take no responability if it crashes especially since the DirectMusic part has no error handling.
Allows flicker-free, gradient scrolling credits to be added to your program.
The XML Engine is a set of classes designed to make it easy for your programs to parse and construct XML. The parser can be used either to automatically construct an easy-to-use data structure (like I.E.'s document object model) or direct your program (through events) to do what it needs to on the fly. This latter mode facilitates work on the data even as the XML is being incrementally received, as from a long file download. This means your program won't have to wait to start work and can avoid memory overruns associated with "passively" parsing huge XML files. This approach could even be used with an endless stream of XML, which would be great for quickly implementing a simple client/server communication protocol (search for my "Socket Controls" package here at PSC). The XmlElement class, which represents a node in an XML tree, can be used independently of the engine. Your program can easily clone an XML tree, insert new branches anywhere, remove whole branches, and export it to raw XML or plain text (stripped of XML tags). The plain-text export can be given an array telling it what to replace certain tags with, too. An element node can be either a representation of a named tag (e.g., "TABLE") with named attributes or a text block (anything that would appear in-between tags). A demo program is included with simple demonstrations of a number of basic techniques. This engine does not deal with every last idiosyncracy of XML and assumes any XML it parses is well-formed. DTD's are not supported (not that they really relevant, here). But the basics of XML are supported. It can even be used as an HTML generator and parser, provided the HTML is XML-formatted (all start tags must have end tags or be single-tag formatted like "<SOMETAG/>"). Unfortunately, there is currently no documentation, but the code is straightforward and easy to read. Further, the demos should provide enough explanation for how to use the engine. Your comments and votes are welcome.
I have created something like the laser program but mine's alittle different . Mine actually draws out the picture and it looks like a laser while it does it . It can draw any picture you have . It's a must see
It turns the Decimal format of a colour value (example: 16777215) into three seperate values containing the seperate Red, Green, and Blue values. (example: red = 255, green = 255, blue = 255).
Explains the basics of using collections in Visual Basic. These are a very powerful and often unused feature of VB.
This is a very cool starfield that can be moved in multiple directions. This is definitaly a must see. Please vote for me!
This takes 2 strings and returns the percent alike that they are. (i.e. "test string number 1" is 86.48% similar to "teststring numb 2") This function is very useful! You can use it in databases to match data that may have errors in it. Examples being people's names, company names, addresses, or anything else where you may encounter misspellings or inconsistencies in the data. Your feedback and/or votes are greatly appreciated! -- NEW - updated to use byte arrays instead of strings, 50-300% performance improvement! An implementation of the , Ratcliff/Obershelp/Levenshtein method.
