At last, the bsHexControls have been updated (unfortunately they are still a bit slow and buggy). They now have the same features as the bsOctControls. If you want to, you can vote...

Place this control on a form along with two other controls (text boxes, etc). In the forms Load method, place the following code (this example is for two text boxes... if you can't figure this out, un-install VB from your computer) WESplitter1.LeftChild Text1.hwnd, Text1 WESplitter1.RightChild Text2.hwnd, Text2

This form can be used as a template for creating dynamic "Outlook" style forms in VB. Each frame resizes independently...and best of all, NO OCX!

ActiveX ProgressBar, Meter control, No OCX, No registered controls just simple addin progressbar.

After a good response to the first ProgressBar I submitted I desided to add a border option and a couple more controls. Hope you enjoy the extras. I appreciate the good feedback. Thanx, Jerrame

AxtiveX VU Meter.

This is a generalization of the clsPrintAvery5352 code submitted by Bernard J. Tucker on 11/27/1999. This version of the class will print any label that the calling routine can describe. The zip also contains a VB project to show the use and an Access database of label partameters from the Avery Web site (legal).

This is not new ... but I found out that there are few people who know this. This little project that dynamically creates a textbox on a form at runtime. Maybe this can help other users.

Give Runtime IDE Control ReSize Functionality. ActiveX control attaches to any control. Provide Size and Move with anchor points with a single line of code. Provides Font Dialog Via right Click.

This sample demonstrates how to emulate splitter bars using VB

UPDATE(2002-12-13): Sample HookMenu 1.4 introduces RightToLeft forms support. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-27): Sample HookMenu 1.3.5 fixes problems with MDI forms. Separators are reduced to 3 pixels to match Office XP ones. You can use DontHookMenu=1 when debugging and the control is part of your project. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-23): Sample HookMenu 1.3.4 fixes troubles in NT 4.0, menubar background color in Win XP classic appearance and sub-menu arrow forecolor if menu text is not black. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-21): Sample HookMenu 1.3.3 fixes an XP redraw bug, an accelerator (underlined) symbols bug and keyboard navigation in Win9x. Sample HookMenu 1.3.2 adds custom drawing of sub-menus arrows and fixes unicode strings support. Various fixes for Win95 support. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-20): Sample HookMenu 1.3.1 fixes issues with WindowList menus and 3rd level sub-menus positioning. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-18): Sample HookMenu 1.3 fixes issues with the subclasser (both in Win 9x and NT/2K/XP) so no more GPFs. Closer Office XP experience: menu colors are closer to Office values in 8bit color depth and in high contrast color scheme; menu shadow simplified as in Office in 8bit color depth; popup menus are positioned manually two pixels down; seamless shadow if popup is above the menubar. __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-12): Sample HookMenu 1.2 fixes the issue with TextBox popup menus (finally!). Some design time issues and menubar background color problems spotted by Ovidiu Boldea. Also, the property page is working more fluently now. I'm sick of win9x and so these are not supported from now on (ok, promise to do my best:-)). __________________________________________________ UPDATE(2002-11-10): Sample HookMenu 1.1 fixes issues in NT 4.0 and MDI child forms. Can anyone test the control under win95? __________________________________________________ This is a second attempt on moduleless window subclasser featuring "run-time dynamically generated machine code". The original was submitted by Paul Caton a couple of months ago. The present version is safer and is based on a completely rewritten assembly thunk. Also I have changed the name of the subclasser to reflect more closely what in fact it's doing. In addition to this you get the hooking thunk which (you guessed it) hooks windows hooks in a convenient and safe way. Both of the thunks' source files (assembly) are included. Both thunks are designed to be and have shown to be exceptionally safe in the IDE, they seem immune to both the end button and End statement - try to crash them and let me know what your results are. The screenshot is from a sample project (included in the zip) which subclasses a form's menus and turns them into Office XP clones - now it's not necessary to include 13000 lines of "supercode" to get the Office XP style menus under win 98/2000/XP/.Net Server (not tested on 95/NT btw). Enjoy and leave your votes!

This source is an example of how you can take any picture, declare a 'transparent' color and make a shaped form (skin) from it. It's simple, complete, and it WORKS!

Nothing special: a simple progress bar.

This code uses API to get/set properties of most any combobox. I have designed it to work as an object so that you can just input the handle of your combobox and get/set the properties. Sample Included of course.

This project has a class that adds bitmaps to the menus of a standard form. The class also resizes the bitmaps to a nice size. This is done via one sub method in the class. Please vote for me if you like it!! thanks

This is an example of how to create multiple child forms and open them at runtime..Originally this is for developing an MDINotepad Application.

This user control has 62 easy to use API controls within it. It has the ability get the CPU usage, add files to the documents menu, clear the documents menu, get the name of the current user and the computer, get the amount of time windows has been open, refresh windows, show and hide the start button, open the default internet browser, connect and disconnect to the internet, send Email, play sounds, get the mouse position, flip the mouse buttons, hide and show the cursor, trap the cursor within a region and release it again, find and change the screen resolution, find all possible screen resolutions for the monitor, shut down restart and log off windows, show and hide the taskbar time and desktop icons, turn on and off the screensaver, disable or enable ctl+alt+del, minimize all windows, open explorer, make a form stay on top, show the shut down dialog box, make the computer go to sleep for an extended amount of time, enable or disable objects, open and close the CD-Rom, search for files, copy delete and move files (quickly), check if a path exists and more, all with easy to use categories! Vote for me!

Hi folks, Have u ever wanted touch control for touch screen application development. Here is a small contribution from me. I developed 2 control "touch2 - 2 buttons navigation"and "touch4 - 4 buttons navigation". Source included enjoy. Please Leave some comments....
