Explains the basics of using collections in Visual Basic. These are a very powerful and often unused feature of VB.
Demonstrates one method of creating custom menus that can contain images, combo boxes, or any other Windows control. Although this is not the most powerful method, it doesn't require any API custom calls or any third party .ocx's (like the Office Toolbar). NOTE: This is a DEMO project. It is not a finished product. I realize that it has some pretty big limitations as it is, but it should be enough to get someone who needs to add VB controls to menus a good start. I made it simple to make it easy to understand. Please feel free to use it, modify it, and call it your own...but please don't tell me things like "It would be better if it had a calendar control" or something like that. Instead, modify it to include a date-picker, calendar control, or whatever and re-post it as an improvement. I am sure others would appreciate that and I sure won't mind.
*REPOST* Sorry all...I left out a form file. This one should be good... Completely formats source code text...(adds white space, blocks). Fully customizable...add new commands, change formatting preferences, etc. Currently set up for VB, but can easily be customized to any language. This is a port from an add-in I wrote last year. Someone was asking about some code that did this that Ulli took off of PSC when he got mad and left. I never saw his code (probably better than mine) but since I had it, I decided to post it. This works surprisingly well. NOTE: This project is for DEMONSTRATION. It is a quick port from a VB add-in. Therfore, it may have some bugs...but I don't know of any.
This is very cool. For those of you who appreciate it, thanks. For those of you who are just looking for something to put down, move along. I don't want the coding award, so you don't need to try to make me look bad. WHAT IT DOES: This code allows you to utilize the Microsoft Word Spellchecker without having to open word. I am constantly typing something on the web (like right now) and I want to do a quick spell check...I have to open word, paste it in, check spelling, copy it, and then paste it back in the browser. This code automates that. Just copy it and run the app. The corrected results will end up in the clipboard ready to paste back in.... ALSO.... If you create a shortcut and place it in your SendTo folder, you can right-click on any text file and check the spelling. The result ends up in the clipboard. A little creativity and you can code a function to save it back in the corrected form. That is a little project for you. This project is a good example of how to use the Word objects from VB. Enjoy
This code makes easy work of doing simple rounding on decimal number...something that VB currently lacks. Why didn't they think of this?
