Presented here are two VB classes for parsing Veritas Catalog files. Veritas catalogs are essentially the file system of a DLT backup tape it it may be useful to extract information from the catalog. Moreover, this was my first real successful attempt at reverse-engineering a file format. The file format specifications are included in the zip.

The free document image highlighting solution is back again! The original code has been revamped to be more object-oriented. The package now includes a thumbnail viewer and several classes and interfaces that you can use to implement your own annotation classes. The code is still in heavy beta stages, but useable enough for now. Includes a demo app to show you how to connect the image viewer to the thumbnail. Image/thumbnail annotation is kept in sync with a tricky Interface-Events workaround. This may change when multiple thumbnail highlights is implemented.

This is a SpyHunter-like game with a very simple tile-based engine running on DirectX7 for scaling effects. It also comes with its map editor.

Brain Twister is based on a cheap yellow plastic puzzle toy that tests your abstract skills by requiring you to recreate depicted shapes using only four different shaped pieces by rotating, flipping and aligning them. See Readme.txt for lots more info. (Updated) Cleaned out the code a bit, moved the objective into its own window. Rendering is now done on a continual basis, i.e. not only when the mouse moves. This makes it more game-like in design. Thought of adding a time-attack mode...

This is a server/client IM messenger that currently: allows users to chat to one another. upload an avatar picture. send files. allows the server to see what a user is up to on their workstation. It is intended for LAN networks, specifically in schools, where the server would be running on the instructors PC. The teacher could then see whatever the students are doing. while allow the students to chat among themselves, and send files. The server can also distribute a file to all the students but only one at a time. Uses Winsock UDP and TCP. See documentation (included) for message protocols. Needs CRC.dll and zlib32.dll available here: http://www.geocities.com/saintender.geo/vgs/dlls.zip

This project started as a way to play around with form shaping. It then extended into custom graphical blitted controls and subclassing. This is intended as a desktop companion, where you can store random thoughts or memos. You can also drag files onto it to move them into a storage folder. This is a fan work heavily inspired by Ragnarok, so if you're not into ragnarok online, you probably won't find much use for this. Shows form shaping using regions stored in a resource, subclassing to limit form movement, snapping a form to the edges of the screen, custom drawn controls.

Ever wanted to extract data from an Excel file without the use of a clunky Excel object? BEEF is a preliminary class for reading data from excel files. Based on OpenOffice documentation (included), BEEF can currently only read BIFF8/8X files. This is a beta app, and only basic data gathering is implemented.

This automates a bit of code in Visual Basic with verification of textboxes, allowing/suppressing keys in textboxes, and other features. This is best implemented as a VB Add-in, but as I don't know how to yet, this will do for now.
