This is a standard LZSS compression/decompression engine. It is written in VB for learning purposes, and should be converted to C/C++ if it is to be used with large amounts of data. It uses a dictionary compression algorithm (like ZIP,ARJ and others) and works the best on data with a lot of repetitions.

This code is a must have! It's cooler than the "Cool Form Close" code , cooler than the "Implode and Explode" code! So what does it do? When you close you program a really cool effect will appear.

Way Cool! This code is a very advanced one but it's really easy to use, try it!!! Includes functions for getting the top position of your start menu and offcourse the bounce code! New for ver. 2 is that the form now can bounce sideways if you edit the code just a little tiny bit, now also supports maximized windows!!!

Other than those requirements, the code is very easy to understand.

I just quickly improved this screen wipe function written by Jesse Foster. It runs a bit smoother and is usable as a function for any form. Just drop it into a module. Also, I made it work so that it is 'public' not private.

This code adds allows you to add menu item's on your form while you are running it(runtime :)...

This code uses OLE Automation to allow VB to open an instance of MS Word if the user has it on their system and spell check the contents of a text box.
