An example of minimal code to get the job done.LOL Beer Dude 2 belongs to its creator. I was just sucking some sudds & thought I would share this fun. Enjoy !

Who says you cant store code in a INI file ! The workarounds where quite easy ! Name says it all. Enjoy !!!

Ever see some of these professional applications, perhaps running in the tray that show them selves if the program is executed again yet their is no error generated & wonder how they done it. This is a simple example of one way it can be done. I worked this out for a tray application I am working on . I never seen anything like it posted before so I thought it was slick enough to share.

A simple security tester you can use to find out some of the data that your computer may be broadcasting to other computers. A lot of hard work went into this puppy, so I hope you like it ! Enjoy !!!!

Well thanks to the parsing routine I worked out the other day we have satellite loops again. A special thanks also goes out to the NWS Satellite Services Division, for the new well organized server file system. Without their updates this program wouldn't have been possible. Images automatically update on 2 Min. after the quarter of every hour provided your system clock is accurate. If your running XP this shouldn't be an issue. You may need to run down the GDI resize DLL. For it is required for this program to run. If their are any unforeseen issues that I might have overlooked please feel free to post it. I sincerely hope everyone enjoys this new code & puts it to good use. Please let me know of any improvements you might make, I would love to see them. Update 1: I added the U.S. Continent map's & a map advance speed selector. As well as making the change that xim suggested. Update 2: I added 'Freeze on latest image'.

A nice full screen VB version of the NWS Ridge radar basic. Includes radars from all 50 states as well as special interest maps. You can select between all 6 ridge map styles. Special interest maps include U.S. continent radar and basic surface analysis. The special interest maps can easily be expanded by code. Maps check automatically for updates every 3 minutes. Enjoy !!!

Geo Sun Times allows you to get your sunrise and sunset times each day by using your zip code to look up your geographical location in a database. The database file its self is to large to post here at PSC so you can download it from my website here: http://www.tas-independent-programming.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?file=zipcodes-csv-10-Aug-2004.zip This is an extended front end to compliment ahmed elsheshtawy's submission at http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=65314&lngWId=1 .

This is a complete rework of chosen_reject's original submission at http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=58642&lngWId=1 and implementation of D.W.'s MoonPhase.bas at http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=29000&lngWId=1 This program is capable of calculating moon phase and other information for any date thrown at it. The only possible limitations is the limits of Microsoft's calendar control. Their is plenty of room for more customizations. If you like it please don't forget to vote.

Search 12 of the top VB source code sites at the same time with a fully tabbed interface. Now don't get me wrong this code is nothing fancy but it does the job, it works & looks good ! I am even uploading this submission with it ! LOL

Customize your desktop, control panel or my computer with any application of your choice. Includes removal archives so you can remove any application you add at any time. Uses a Uneek UUID identifier for each new tool you add so their wont be any conflicts. Another working shell tool from TAS Independent Programming !

No matter what kind of streaming media your into, this program is bound to become your best friend. It uses a fully user programmable INI database to store and recall any streaming media that your into. Its capable of delivering eather audio or video, capable of even going full screen windowless video. Uses Windows Media Player 10. The next time you run into a hot webcam, radio stream or other media you now have a place to file it away for safe keeping. The programming focus was purely on functionality. I literally ripped this puppy out in one afternoon. Only possible limitations are users lack of ability to collect the streaming media links. Even though it only took one afternoon, it contains un-numerable hours studying the subject matter so it could be stored properly. Fully capable of being expanded upon to export XML or RSS. I sincerely hope everyone enjoys this baby !!!

I have seen a lot of people put together parsing weather information programs pulling data from pro websites that usually bomb inside of a week So I figured I would make an attempt at the same kind of project and see if I could do any better. LOL This program works by first submitting the users zip code to a geo database and returning XML then parses the data URL from the XML to finally gather and then filter the weather data the way it should be done. Like the name says it was a simple project, hope you like it.

A 3’rd party review of other language builders from a beginner’s view point.

I looked high, I looked low. But I couldn't find an example anywhere like this. Inet Who Is IP address lookup directly thru, yes the main database. "whois.arin.net" In 12 lines of code using a single function. No more having to go thru a middleman for simple Who Is lookups. After writing Who Is I decided to see if I could pull off NTP also. What do you know, I did ! LOL I hope this simple code is as big to you as it is to me ! If it is please vote. Enjoy !!!

An explanation of windows resource templates.

A streaming internet alarm clock radio. Features include internet detection with backup alarm sound file. 12 or 24 hour display with date. All savings are saved to the registry. No resetting the alarm every day, it can be added to the start up. Tray enabled for quick access. Automatic mixer un-muting and 90% volume crank at alarm time. When you press stop on media player after alarm is playing it returns your mixer volume back to the originally set volume. You can also set the media player volume individually for each memory station and it is saved. Up to 5 preset stream links can be set from interface to point to any internet stream you like. I have included a huge file full of stream links to help users to pick stations. This program is full of features you are sure to love ! The original version of this submission 'Big Red Radio Alarm Clock' was missing some of the settings code and hung at windows shutdown. I have reconstructed the code to fix that problem. I also had trouble with the original stations stream link going down. I guess because I made the mistake of telling them about the program. Oh well their are thousands of radio stations out their with feeds that still work. So its that stations loss of listeners by them shutting off their stream. I have included a small list of some stations to help. More can be gotten from http://www.radio-locator.com and elsewhere. Also you can get the K-Lite Codec Pack to be able to listen to streaming MP3 broadcasts. This program is also available from my website in full installer form. http://www.tas-independent-programming.com Requires windows media player 7.0 or up. Your mornings will never be the same. Enjoy !!!

I wrote this program for a friend of mine with Autism to help him learn to read. It includes 18 word lists including all 5 levels of Dolch word lists. Program requires Microsoft Speech API 4.0. Uses random sorting routines to display 4 words from list then audibly says one of the words to the student. Student must then click on the same word from the four words displayed. Includes scoring. I originally found a program similar to this online and they wanted money for it. So if you need this program, here it is all you have to do is compile it. Don't forget to vote. Enjoy !!!
