Two pre made forms (Tab Strip and a dir select) ready to put into your apps from the VB project window. Form1 = 31 lines of code giving you a 6 window Tab form to start working with. Form2 = 13 lines of code giving complete access to you file system with minimum code. Just unZip to your forms file which by default would be somthing like "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Template\Forms" then launch VB and add a form you will find them their. Saves me ages, I do have other forms but will only add them if people vote for these. JP keep on coding.
Alot of people want there programs to be more popular, this is the way, if you have the only program that will save to a particular format, then everyone will HAVE to use your program to open there files. And it will HAVE to become FAMOUS!!! Plus it's really cool to have your own Extention. My programs shows you alot of stuff: 1)How to make your own Extention 2)A simple way of formfades 3)How to save useing Common Dialogs Filters 4)How to copy a picture to your Clipboard 5)Comes with detailed Instructions It's simple for any begginer or intermediate!!!
Returns the path to a system folder, based on input. This code is based on a submission by 'Don'. Originally the code only found the System Folder on the machine. I have added all of the system folders (MyDocuments, System, Cookies, etc), and made it into a class/dll for ease of use. The code is relatively self explanatory, however, I have added comments, just in case.
(Updates is on http://www.planet-source-code.com/xq/ASP/txtCodeId.26377/lngWId.1/qx/vb/scripts/ShowCode.htm) Fellow programmers. Ever wonder how one company's software reads a wave file and show it as a wave sample? This code demonstrated how you can read a wave file and DISPLAY it as a wave sample without using a single API! It opens a wave file (FOR RANDOM) to reads the so-call BINARY (ASCII) and draws the lines in a picture box according to the data in the file. Please note that the wave samples produces by this code are not as detail as those you found in some WAVE EDITOR. I'm still figuring out the wave format and try to play the sound. If you know a function that can play sections of a wave file, generate sounds at different volume and frequency or directly make the speakers (connected to the sound card) vibrate at different frequency and volume, please send me an E-mail...Thanks.
With this program you can easily make a searchable list of files with size included. This is great for people with large numbers of files (like say mp3's) who don't want to duplicate their already downloaded files. Simply drag and Drop files onto the listbox. You can save and retrieve the filelist to a text file for future use. Also provided is a MRU or Most Recently Used list, so that you don't have to search for the file everytime you want to load it. Full source code is included (of course), so you can see how it all works!
UPDATED! This is a Module that will help you fill a ComboBox from an ini file. It creates the file and allows you to add and delete from it. I just updated this to do a bubble sort and a few other minor Oops fixes. This code is well commented and should be easy to follow
Forgot your access 97 password? Never fear this function will hack the access 97 local file password
This code is a guide to using\making resource files to use in your VB programs. Resource files are very cool, they allow you to design a great program include all the images in it and it means that no one can edit the images and re-distribute the code as their own.
This will store 24 boolean statements in just a 3 byte file! (3 bytes = 24 bits). I harness the power of bits here and use it to store true and false values. Please vote if u like it and leave a comment.
Check out this code. It will create a standalone EXE that will run on any x86 machine, OS independent. Also, extremely small file. An exe with "Hello, World!" is only 23 BYTES! It is truely amazing!
ALL NEW VERSION!!! Stores 3 textboxes in the actual exe file! Can be more data if code altered slightly! No need to know the offsets now either! If you guys would be nice as to PLEASE VOTE FOR THIS!!! It wasn't very easy to find a solution to the problem of excess files - and I found it! So please be nice - vote and leave comments!
Program opens text file for input, reads name of files in list, then locks those files. Uses form and module, also shows system tray icon.
Avoid the Flickering Use this routine to stop a control (like a list or treeview) from flickering when it is getting it's data.
You can copy files like the Windows-Explorer - with animation !
Getting back to the basics of using VB6 controls. Included in the project are, checkboxes, options, combobox, textbox, Scroll bars, File list, Dir list, and drive list. Very simple programming intended for beginners. Has an example of browsing for files without using common dialog control. Plus an example of using the ShellExecute api and 2 option dithered background. I hope the code is helpful to those that are new. I'm sure there are others like this on here.
This simple program allows users to see the an Access 97 .mdb Password, to open it after.
This Code Get's The Mp3ID3 Tag. It Also lets you write to the Tag. It has perfect support for the Genre Part, and it's well commented. I know there already are code that does this, but they either dont let you write, or they dont support the Genre part. so here it is, email me for a .exe that demonstrates this module.(Now Includes Project for demo)
This control uncompresses rar files as welle as Sfx files !
