This function will tell you if your form is loaded (instantiated) or not. If you use the form's "Visible" property to determine this, the form is instantiated if it's not already loaded. This results in the form's "Load" event being executed unnecessarily. This function has none of the above overheads...
Calculates the CRC for a given string.
After seeing the "Elastic" post below, I thought I'd release my ElasticForms module 'cause this one actually *does* resize the components on the form (even lines). It's pretty tight, fast and it even allows you to set a min width and min height for a form. A zip containing the source and an example project can be found on my home page...
This revised code finally supports the MP3 "Genre" tag (WinAMP 2.22+ compliant). Loads of you have emailed me requesting this facility - I think this is the first such VB code to support it! Easy to implement and the new genre routine is compact. It was a right pain in the arse collecting the Genre descriptions ;-) Note:- A demonstration app is availble from my homepage...
This code is a direct replacement for the VB6 Replace function. Obviously, VB 6 users will have very little (if any) use for the function. It is intended for use with older versions of VB that do not have the in-built Replace function. I noticed a similar piece of code released earlier this week, but it only appeared to handle character replacing and not strings. This version will do both and it's pretty tight and fast.
