To study one File-Format Structure, is a "TRUE" advanced task for a programmer, offset-by-offset and byte-by-byte definitions, and studying the Executable Format of the system you are working on one of this tasks. But to study a format, you must have a Viewer and a Format Description itself from the File-Format author/developer or by scanning through the use of Scanners/Detectors. Using the FileMapping Class I recently submitted to this Server, I have created a Portable Executable Viewer, an Application capable of: - Has support for Portable Executable 64-Bit - Opening and Detecting Portable Executable Type - Recalculating Image Checksum - View MS-DOS Compatibility Headers - View Portable Executable Headers - View Optional Headers - Generating a Full Report

File System 2.4 is an ActiveX DLL that i made to make editing files easier. If you don't want to use a database for whatever reason, (like to little data in your project) text files are probably your next best bet. With this DLL (source IS included) you first call a function to set the file you are working with. Then you use fuctions like XAppend to append to the end of the file, XAddToLine to add some text to the end of the line by entering an any length string that the line begins with and it finds the line and adds the text to the end of it. You can delete lines with the function Xdelete, where you specify an any length string and it finds the line that begins with it and deletes only that line from the file. Use the DLL in your project by going to Add Refrences and selecting the DLL. All the features are then avalible for you to use in your project.

Ever wanted an easy way to store settings for your program? The registry is great and all but it's hard to check to make sure things are saved correctly and if you're not sure what you're doing you can clutter it up with junk quickly. The ini class can be compiled into a stand-alone DLL or included directly into your project. It has methods to create, delete and rename, sections, keys and values within a file making storing settings a breeze! If you have any questions or comments please post them here or email me at [email protected]

This project shows how you can write values to an exe file (and change it). NO API and highly commented. First, make the test_exe.exe. Then start read_write project, change values and click Write. You'll se that test_exe.exe has changed!!! Please vote and leave comments.

This code is useful to read/write the files' dates (creation, last access, last edit).

Use this nifty program to combine files into a single binary file. Allows you to Combine and Extract files using a simple, easy to use, interface. Great for protecting your files when you distribute your apps/games. Also keeps your files seperate from you EXE so to update your app/game's graphics or sounds etc all you need to do is redistribute the binary file. If you like it a vote would be nice. If you hate it please tell me why. =] Vist my website www.pointystudios.cjb.net Version History: 1.2 -Added ability to select the destination extraction directory -Added a "Add All" button so you can add all the files from a dir to the list. 1.1 -Fixed some minor bugs -Added ability to remove files from list. -Added error trapping 1.0 -Release version.

commonly needed file macros you hate to code over and over. Functions: GetFolderFiles, GetSubfolders, FileExists, FolderExists, SafeFileName, Read/Write/AppendFile, GetFreeFilename, FileNameFromPath,ChangeExtension, etc.. anyway this will help you clean up your code alot and make it more readable Dont forget to check my sight for more stuff: http://geocities.com/dzzie

I made this project after reading a paper about asm. they were talking about how programers were amazzed to find out that a program will still run even when appended by another. then they took it to the next step, prepending an still getting it to work. then an even greater step, filling the programs white space up with code and running the program + the code that filled the white space without any errors. i got it to work in asm and wondered if there was any way to get any kind of prepend, append, or white space fill effect in a vb writen app. all i got was the prepend. append only worked if i knew what compiler made the program (masm hehehe, not vb6 or vc++...sorry lads).

This is an easy to understand example how to use the great Info-Zip Dlls (www.info-zip.org) to zip or unzip files or directories. The basics of this code, the included wrappers, are not by myself and will be supplied automatically if you download the Dlls from info-zip.org. But I have to work a lot to understand how to use the Dlls in my own manner. This code shows simple to use zip routines: zip a file or directory, unzip a file or directory, unzip a single file of a zip file, delete a single file of a zip file, show the file names inside a zip file. Please vote. ---------------------------------------------- Update 08/17/2008: Fixing some severe bugs in the unzip routines.

I wrote this for someone who needed to know how to read in all the file extensions in a directory and keep updating it when changing directories. It uses InStr to find the "." and then does a bubble sort (not efficient I know).

New NotePad has the same purpose as Windows NotePad To Create and edit text files. With this new version it has line numbers to the left of the text which changes when you scroll with the scrollbar/Mouse scroll button. Also comes with line count. See the screenshot.

MultiUnzip. Used to extract files/folders from .zip files. have you ever downloaded a program/game and it's compressed into hundreds of .zip files. this prog extracts them all for you at the click of a button. See Screenshot.

This article will quickly and to the point show you how to supress the beep when the user presses the enter key in a single line text box.

This one should behave like the FolderNameEditor class, but with public methods.

File Thing (simple file explorer) This is a small project I made, for just having a basic file-explorer. It looks a bit like the windows explorer does nothing than browsing and showing the files in a directory. It has no real function except for being a base implementation of a file explorer. But doubleclicking a file is working ! So all additional functions you need can be added. All functions are well documented. Feel free to modify this programm to your own needs.

Show data (e.g pictures ,for testing i used only labels) in an ordered and grouped way. It wasn't possible for me to show my data with the datagrid, cause the type of grouping i needed wasn't given. Especially when the data changes often or can be very different. Means that data changes their row and column type and soze based on internal logic. It supports reordering of rows and columns (like Displayindex). Autosizing of rows and columns depanding of content variable distances between rows, columns, items. a basic interface for dynamic contextmenus is given too. As i saw you can use it in many ways: show pictures, make calendar entries/appointments. It wasn't meant to be beautiful or fast. Cause I had my own needs for it.

generate two batch files (one to register, one to unregister) that manage dlls/ocxs in a dev branch. the batch files execute and give the line number of a failed registry event. this is a two minute script that saves me time in trying to see what new dlls/ocxs were added/deleted...hope it is useful to all.

Add images to datagrid columns from an ImageList

This is dynamical contact-Form, You can set the Red Star fields and set the Errorhandling. And all without programming. You should only chang a number and a text, for more info read the comments in my code-sample All fields --> save into DB. You can you use Access, SQL-Server, MySQL, Oracle want you want, in my zip you will find a Contact-Gerate.txt (generate Table) into your Database.

Nice 3D Label Control
