How you can access all the properties, methods, and events of the html object libray/webbrowser control with using any webbrowser or winsock or inet control. Most people believe that in order to use these objects you have to load some sort of browser object into memory..which has always been problem for me since i know that IE has a lot of security holes. the secret basically lies in one method of the HTMLobject library. it is the ".CreateDocumentFromURl" method It goes something like this
This extends the functionality of the listbox by (1) allowing you to create an attractive header with 3 styles ( sunken, framed, raised) (2) specify a header backcolor, forecolor and font.. as well as the fore and backcolor and font of the list portion of the control. The best part of this control is that is specifically designed to be a listbox with tabstops AND you can retrieve AND set data in the list based upon a row and column setting...so all the dirty working of juggling text data is taken care of. This is something i whipped together in a couple of hours so its not totally complete..but its pretty much there..and I am hoping to get suggestions from you on how to enhance and refine it..but I am pretty sure you will like and appreciate it!!
This is a google search application that places all of google search refinement and power searching options in one simple interface. Auto highlighting of the search words makes finding the pages of the most likely match, of your desired search, a simple snap. whether you want 10 results per page or 100, adult filtering or not, narrow your search down to a specific file type, make sure the results DONT include certain words...this program is for you
Whether your new to api programming and need that special tutorial "buddy" by your side or your an API pro and just are sick of the hassles of having to find, copy, and paste api declarations and their associated constants and types, then this program is for you. (also included with this download is my "RAM purge" program that allows you to instantly reclaim wasted ram) This program sits, as a tiny 20 pixel high menu strip on your desktop. You can place it at the very top of your screen or the very bottom, or anywhere in between..its never in the way because it is so small. This program, the VB API code assistant is basically a huge repository of the most commonly used and needed code, just a mouse click away. One click of a button and a procedure header is pasted in your project for you. Another click and the skeleton of an entire select case structure is pasted for you. Want to move a window without a titlebar but forget get how??..one mouse click away. The program also contains well over 100 of the most common api calls along with their constants and type. This program is similair to the well know API-guide..but it takes it to the next level. The screenshot shows all of the menus built into this tiny, thin interface.
yea yea I know..there are around a million messageboxes on planet. But i was building this one for my app and Im really partial to it and here is why. This does the same things the windows message box does but (1) you can have any size or type picture you want, and specify a transparent color (2) this message box will self close after any number of predefined seconds you specify (If the message box requires a response..ie YesNo messagebox this feature is disabled for obvious reasons) (3)This messagebox self centers vertically and horizontally in relation to its calling form. (4)This message box also responds to the shortcut keys so it can be interacted with the keyboard OR the mouse. Take a look...i think you will like it now.
A superior, in many ways, messagebox. Based on my yesterday submission with improvements. It is in the form of an activeX (usercontrol) now and has 6 differents "skins" (red/candy/blue/orange/yellow/silver) has an option of showing the message with no buttons and self closing as fast as you specify...and you can have a picture, any type, any size. This really makes microsoft messagebox look flat and boring.
This is my ListGrid control..so called because it basically merges the functionality of a listbox with a listgrid control. Some of its appealing features are (1) with a short, simple call you can get or set the text of a specified "cell" in the list (2) you create attractive header (2 possible styles) with as many columns as you wish. (3) clicking any of the columns headers cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order (alphabetically) just like in outlook or kazaa (4) There is a property call .highest_index which makes for slightly easier looping...for example with the listbox or any of ms controls..there is a property such as the listcount so if you want to loop through the list you go> for i = 0 to list1.listcount -1 the .highest_index property already takes that into account so now you just loop by>> for i = 0 to listGrid1.highest_index. The listcount is still available to you as well if you prefer that, (5) your can set the font/forecolor/backcolor, individually for both the header and the list itself. If you prefer the lightweightness (not a real word i dont think) of the listbox, and used the settabs api to try to increase the functionality of the listbox but felt like you wish you could take the improvements many steps further than that then you will love this control. Suggestions for improvement will be implemented so suggest away.
a replacement for the standard line control. creates a line that looks more like the line that makes up the edge of the frame control (screenshot) there are 3 types, (single,double, triple) and 2 different types (embossed, raised). Not a huge or fancy control but will save you about 4 or 5 lines of code, without having to think too hard. with there control there is no coding whatsoever..like the standard line control..just drop and position and your done

THIS PROGRAM IS A VB ADDIN THAT SIMPLIFIES AND QUICKENS THE PROCESS OF INSERTING API DECLARATIONS AS WELL AS THEIR ASSOCIATED CONSTANTS AND TYPES IN YOUR PROJECT. HERE IS HOW IT WORKS: 1) FOR API DECLARATION INSERTION: type out the api call i.e "setwindowpos" (without the quotes) select or highlight the call with your mouse cursor, and with the left button still pressed down hit the "a" key on the keyboard. 2) FOR CONSTANTS INSERTION (a) if you know the constants you want type out the first 3 letters ( or more) of the constant(s) you wish to insert. For example..say you've just inserted the api call "DrawText" which requires at least on of the constants prefixed with "DT_ i.e "DT_LEFT or "DT_SINGLELINE" Type out "dt_" (without the quotes) select it with your mouse and with the left button still down hit the "c" key select the constants you desire from the alphabetical list (b) If your unsure of the constants you want with the left mouse button pressed anywhere in the code window hit the "c" key select the constants you desire from the alphabetical list 3) FOR TYPE INSERTION (a) if you know the type you desire type out the entire types name i.e. "pointapi" (without the quotes) select it with your mouse, with the left button still down hit the "t" key, confirm your selection (b) if your usure of the constants you desire with the left mouse button depressed anywhere in the code window, hit the "t" key. The entire list of constants is displayed in alphabetical order. Make your selection(s)

This project is actually part of a larger project...but the idea of this submission is just a different and effective way to offer user with help tips.

To access the info tips in this project simply left click on the large textbox to the right (text1) which brings up a small menu..select "show help tips"
A custom message box with 6 differents "skins" (GlassRed, GlassCandy, GlassOrange, Glassblue, GlassWhite, GlassYellow) use any (or none) icon/bmp for the messagebox..any size you wish, an offsetX and offsetY for exact placement of your messagebox picture, and the ability to play either exclamation, or warning sound, or a custom sound of your choice(or no sound at all) and best of all..it looks real nice)
