This code does many things. When launched, it places itself in the system tray until the user right clicks on the icon. The user is then presented with a popup menu with options. It will allow the user to take capture a portion of the screen and save it to the clipboard for use in other programs.
Gets the CPU Usage for Windows 2000/XP. This is a sample of using PDH.DLL to sample performance data from Windows 2000. It can be used to monitor any performance data. Should also work in NT 4.0 (Requires VB6 and PDH.DLL - included with Win2k).
After hunting for this functionality since I started using VB, I've finally figured out how to *quickly* read the last few lines in a file. This function fills a dynamic array with the last X number of lines in a file you specify. I use it to monitor apachewin32 logs on another server. This is much faster than using 'line input'. I know there may be more optimized ways of doing this, I just thought I should get it out there.
Don't forget to vote. Balloon tooltips in the system tray the way MS does it in 2000/XP/Me. It uses the same method of putting the icon in the tray that we're all used to, but the NOTIFYICONDATA class has changed to reflect the balloon tooltip information. This is the first code i've seen on PSC that does this correctly. Vote if you like it. See the image ->
