CHECK THIS OUT. This very simple prog uses (relativley) basic trig to simulate balls rolling over each other on a 2d plane. it uses ditances between centres to detect collision. A new ball is added when you click in the middle of the screen. Please vote if you liked it, and feel free to suggest... suggestions.

I needed a way to make a major project I am working on work with many languages and allow users to create there own language files, this is the result of those efforts. A class and a demonstration to allow your application to use language files. Allows you to create language.lng files for any language and change all text within the application to the new language. The class allows you to translate text via Index, Key or Phrase. 4 Languages included in this demo, English, Spanish, German and French. There is a ReadMe.rtf file that explains how to create additional languages. 01/30/07: Version 1.0.0

[The new version of this code is located at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=54190&lngWId=1] Ever wanted to create your own API? Well, now you can! Using this program, you can make standard DLL's in Visual Basic, thus allowing you to do things previously only C++ and Delphi programmers can, including creating ISAPI scripts and control panel applets. You can create your own API and then use this API from any programming language that supports API calls! I created this because I saw a program that does the same thing but it costed $800!!!!!!! [This is my first submission to Planet-Source-Code, if you like it, please vote!]

This code will allow you to make your very own stdcall DLL files using Visual Basic. The DLLs that you create can be called from any programming language that supports stdcall DLLs. Just create or open a project with the functions that you want to export, choose the functions to export and click compile! Create your own DLLs that you can call from any programming language that supports stdcall dlls. Create your own API, share code between your programs, create a control panel applet, create an ISAPI application, the possibilities are endless! [This is the 2nd version of the code available at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=53476&lngWId=1]

CodeSense is a control that allows you to have syntax highlighing, autocomplete and function tooltips in an edit control. Unfortunately, it doesn't include a proper VB example. This example shows you how to properly use the CodeSense control in Visual Basic, providing AutoComplete, function tooltips and syntax highlighting. If you go to http://www.dansoftaustralia.com/index.php/3/1 then you can see some screenshots of stuff you can do with the control (the last 2 screenshots aren't included). NOTE: you will need to download the CodeSense control (version 2.22) from http://member.telpacific.com.au/daniel15/cmcs21.ocx and register it for this code to work.

This is in response to M1K3's submission about centering a form over a picture box. I don't want to rip into the flaws of his methodology and will only say that there were far too many assumptions on his part. I think this method is a much better alternative since you don't need to make sure that your form is a specific size, or the parent form or picture box has their properties set to specific values. Should be good for beginners since I use SystemParametersInfo with SPI_GETNONCLIENTMETRICS to determine border width of forms and height of Titlebars for forms.

This is an improved version of the spell checker from Shelz's COTM "A Comprehensive Spell Checker" at txtCodeId=65992. It includes a modified Russell Soundex phonetic algorithm and the Levenshtein Distance algorithm. It is now a *very* fast and effective spell checker solution... It impressed me with its most effective and concise spell checking algorithms, a perfect demo project, and the smart way it provided a complete database of words in a 1.3 MB download... But like many other spell checkers it had a common limitation... The basic aim of the Soundex algorithm is for names with the same pronunciation to be encoded the same so that matching can occur despite minor differences in spelling. The Soundex for a word consists of a letter followed by three numbers: the letter is the first letter of the name, and the numbers encode the remaining consonants. Therefore, only words beginning with the same first letter are compared for similar pronunciation using the standard algorithm... This version of the Russell Soundex algorithm has been modified to allow the matching of words that start with differing first letters so as not to assume that the first letter is always known. In this version the encoding always begins with the first letter of the word... The Levenshtein Distance algo marries perfectly with the results to identify the correct spelling for the given (mis-spelt) word every time! A search on the word "apolstry" with the minimum successful Levenshtein Distance returns just four words where one of these is "upholstery"... [Version 2] - Removed the dependence on the DAO library and is contained in a single text file. The Soundex encoding has been extended to include a 'reverse soundex' of all words (encoding from the end of the words backwards as well). On my 866MHz PC the access database took minutes to create the words database and was quite slow processing the lookup query, particularly after adding the reverse soundex to the query. Creating the database now takes 25 seconds and the lookups are now fast enough to be in real time (updated with every text entry change event)... [Update 18 Feb 09] - Improved speed of data loading at form load from 1.2 to 0.9 seconds on 866MHz PC. On my Athlon 4000+ the database builds in under 10 seconds and the data loads at form load in well under 0.5 seconds. On your average PC this would be fast enough to unload the form every use and re-load it when needed without the user experiencing any delay... [Update 21 Feb 09] - Added code to normalise words file to expected format (removes empty lines and converts comma delimited files)... [Version 3] - Considerably improved speed of both Soundex and Levenshtein Distance algos by eliminating Mid$(s,i,1) creating a temp string for every character and comparing chars, to using copymemory to grab the unicode value and comparing int's instead. I think the MidI code used was authored by Bruce McKinney, but if it is yours let me know and I will give you credit... [Version 4] - Injected some asm machine code into the database creation sub and now builds the database in a blink! Big thanks to Robert Rayment for your generous help with as$embler Happy coding, Rd :)

This is a guide to help total beginners familiarize themselves with the Visual Basic development environment.

Some very basic but handy tips for newbies (and maybe not so newbies). Hope you learn something. I've added quite a bit more to the article, mostly very basic info on the vb language, but we all had to learn this stuff when we started out.

This is my mouse meter that I made. I took a little bit of time, but it works great! plase give me comments and vote thx. -LCSBSSRHXXX

This is a key board controled mouse program, it used the arrow keys to move (you can go up, down, left, right, and all diagonal directions)to left click press space, to right click press alt, to middle click / mouse wheel click press ctrl. this works very well. I hope you enjoy it! please leave me feed back and vote, thx! -LCSBSSRHXXX
