Newly Updated with TREEVIEW added... check out the screenshot! Ever wanted to extract the info quickly from your Visual Basic Project file? Use this to code to do that... grab the information, like dependencies, forms, classes, ect..., use the info in another project... Make your own SourceSafe or Project Organizer. This code teaches how to parse a file and how to use common dialog. Enjoy!!

This program is a simple application that is designed for one thing and one thing only: It senses the "Splash Screens" used by Windows when you start up your computer, the computer is in the process of shutting down, and when Windows prompts you "It Is Now Safe To Turn Off Your Computer," or whatever you have it set to. This program allows you to copy those images to the clipoard, as well as "Refresh" them. If for no other reason, check this program out to learn what files Windows uses for the pictures behind the splash screens, and how to load pictures into pictureboxs/images on runtime, a function that is VERY helpful when skinning. This could be useful for people attempting to make their own themes. By using the knowledge that I gained from this application, I wrote a program that changes those screens to some special files that I made. P.S. Throw a vote in my direction if you can find the time: You have no idea how long it took me poking around in my hard drive to find these files, and to figure out how to load pictures on runtime. And for those of you wondering how you load pictures on runtime, this is the simplest code available. Example: Private Sub Form_Load() Picture1.Picture = LoadPicture("C:\Windows\Bubbles.bmp") End Sub
