This code is a demonstration of a quick and easy way to copy an entire list (without needing to select them all) or selected list items to the clipboard for pasting into other applications. It simply copies the items to a hidden text box and then uses the clipboard method. Follow the instructions below to see how it works

Advanced version! If you have a Video Capture card installed on your computer, then this will work great! I tested this on 3 different capture cards on different computers with 100% satisfaction! Thanks to E. J. Bantz Jr. for providing this free code from his website.

Flatbed scanner, Hand Held, or any TWAIN compliant device can be accessed in Visual Basic with the EZTWAIN DLL (Included free as freeware). I like this much better than the KODAK OCX for scanning. This uses less resources and less coding. Don't flood me with a ton of questions on this project. Once you use it, you will know as much as I do. REMEMBER to copy the EZTW32.DLL into your Windows System Directory!!!!!

Very short code! Newly updated and it WORKS! Display bitmaps instead of text on a drop menu, in a form. Use the VB Menu Editor to create a menu with sub menus, the code does the rest!! So easy you will slap yourself for using other people's lengthy drawn-out codes.

Easy Code here: Place an icon in the System Tray and have a drop menu appear when you click the icon with the right-mouse button. If you already have code with bitmaps in your menu, just add this code to your project! This code DOES WORK, just be careful and follow the tips. Then slap yourself for other people's long and drawn out useless code from the past.

This source code is a jump in revisions from 1.0a to 1.1a of neXus. For those of you that don't know, neXus is my coordinate-mapping application inspired by an original idea from Tyson Westby. Anyways, the changes in 1.1a are that you can have a visual confirmation that you have marked a coordinate. However, unfortunately, this meant that I had to take some of the source code out. Some of the old functionality was lost, and some of the new functionality doesn't work correctly. Anyways, this application allows the user to map coordinates for irregular-shaped Visual Basic forms without the need for bulky ActiveX Controls. As always, leave feedback and vote!

This is the source code to the largest project that I've ever worked on -- neXus 1.0a. neXus is based on an application that was created by Tyson Westby about one year ago. It's function is to allow Visual Basic programmers to modify the shape of the Form without having to include a bulky ActiveX control. The way it did this was to harness the power of the Windows GDI, and other API calls. But don't take my word for it, download the source code and try it out! And please, take the time to vote and leave feedback!

This code will easily let any user create simple, yet effective credit scroller. This is so effectively easy, that any novice can create it. I created this code because I tried the other source code on this site, and I found it difficult to follow.

Are you fed up with the fact that you can only display one line in vb tooltips. This class allows multiple line tooltips. It also allows you to specify the Maximum Width of the tooltip, the delay until it appears, the length of time it is visible and whether the tooltip is centered below the control. I have added support for setting the font that is used as well.

Performs compression/decompression on a byte array using run length encoding (RLE). This is an EXTREMELY FAST algorithm, implemented in a very efficient way. Many people have been emailing me about this so here it is.

Take a picture of the screen

Create Flash movies and allow them to launch ANY associated file on your system. Ideal for use as a CD menu and the like. (Excuse the name, I always call Flash, Shock because I use ShockMachine a lot :-0 )

Did you ever what to time something up to thousands of a second. This is not possible by using time() and timers at all. This little class (only uses 3 variables) can time up to a thousands of a second with your CPU clock frequency. There's a little example program also shows the difference between using: {if VarX "" then} AND {if Len(VarX) 0 then}. The last one will execute between 20-25% faster. The timer can show this in fractions of a second.

It automatically makes your form on top until they close or end the program and it is all API free!

Draws cool transparent explosions in a variety of sizes anywhere on the screen. Just click with the left and middle mouse buttons at the same time. To change the size of the explosions, click the middle and the right mouse buttons.

Similar to BinFileEdit1, but for readers who have a fast machine which can afford a synchronized display of both hex and character highlights with each move in Edit Mode. As with BinFileEdit1, this code includes Hex Edit functions. View/edit binary and text files, with both hex and character search facilities fully functional, and you can print any displayed page (each page upto 512 bytes, showing byte positions, hex and characters). - Note: This version is for a faster machine, if you have a slower one, you may use BinFileEdit1 instead.

(Also known as DocPreview) A functional program to provide print preview and actual printing facilities for RichText documents in a text editor. Written in VB, the program includes functions such as preview Zoom-in and Zoom-out, page margins setup, selection of any specific page to preview and selection of any ange of pages to print. It even allows you to selectively print a highlighted text and/or picture only, etc.

Resize and Center an image control(maintaining image proportion)(remember to load an image) inside a picturebox control. This code rescales and centers the image to a size small enough to fit inside any give picture box. Good for thumbnails. I don't know if this code is bug proof... Let me know what you think ,Thanks

This is a must see. This project lets you Add objects to a form and lets the User move the object anywhere on it, I also made it so that the object couldn't be moved off of the form. You can also Rename or Delete the object by Right Clicking them. The best thing about this is that you and Load and Save the Objects to/from a .dat file, It saves each open Object's: Top position, Left position, Caption, and Visibility and then is able to load that info. This is a perfect example For you programmers who want to make a program that lets The user move objects around on the Form. See the Screen Shot..Here's an example on how this is useful..Visual HTML making programs...Like FrontPage or Macromedia DreamWeaver...They let the user add objects and lets them move it around. (Input Button, Option Button..Checkbutton...etc
