quite nasty hexeditor in vb6 can handle files upto 2.1 gb (uses a custom filebuffer to avoid loading all data at once) supports copy paste , delete / insert bytes and multiple documents.. i saw some other guy has submitted his hexeditor so i figure i could just as well submit mine to instead of letting it just rott on my hd... its not finnished but its still quite nice , hope you like it... start hexed.vbp list of features: filebuffer (load files upto 2.1 gb) copy paste data in both hex/text mode mdi app custom scrollbar to allow more than 32k lines file compare tool , compare 2 or more files string extractor , extract strings (ansii/unicode)
This program will simulate a chicken.(Not a very good program and not finished)This program can show you how to open a file and write to it.
Code Deletes a File and Directory, Note YOu DOnt Have to Reference Ms Scripting Runtime Please Vote for me if this helps you out or if you think it is a good code!!!!! Thank you Sean For letting me know you don't Have to reference Ms Scripting
This code will put all the files,drives,and dirs into one list box. This is pretty simple but please leave comments and vote for this code. This works extremely well.
Simply and efficiently rename all the files of a directory. Select a directory, Choose what type of files to rename (All, Graphic, text), Enter a starting number, Select a number of 'padding' (zero's) and thats it!. Good example of simple error handling, Loop Structures, etc. Nothing too exciting, but it works on Windows 98 - XP. Mail me if you need more functionality.
Dirguard guards a directory for changes like addig files, deletions, renaming, adding / deleting subdirectorys. Some other small gadget have also been inserted in the code. This is an update of previous version(s) and also the final version so i made it 2.0, i would like to spend more time on it but a new project awaits. Please rate this code and report problems / questions or comments to me. The code is tested on WIN-NT (4-sp6) and Win98(SE) and worked fine (WIN-NT users read the code-comment for additional information).
This program guards a given directory, its an update of a previous version. I have added the detection of filechanges (suggested by TonyK), completed the print-code, savecode for the log and put lost of comments in the code. The code is more complex than the previous version but does not contain API, classes or DLL so it should be easy to read. I did not yet found a simple way to obtain the username of the person who does the altering of files (suggested by Maju) but i am working on it. This can result in a bit of API but who knows there might be a simple way. Tested with WIN95/98/SE and WIN-NT. Please RATE this program and feel free to send me suggestions / questions. Cybsoft
Well here it is, Dirguard de Luxe, as i could not find beta-testers i could only test it on WinNT and win98Se. Now guarding multiple directory's, just ad them to the guardlist and all files within are guarded. Solved the syncronisation of different boxes in previous versions by using a FlexGrid to store the information, i never used Flex-Grid so the code might be somewhat "unusual". Now guarding for : additions, deletions, changes of date, time, attribute and size, also checks if a file can be accessed. The logfile got autoscroll and there is something done about the visualisation of the guarding, again the code might seem a bit exotic here and there. Feedback or a rating would be great, also beta-testers but hey...you can always improve it yourselfe but please inform me about your ideas. (CPU-load while checking 700 files is 19% max)
Hello everyone :) Today here is a little program that is going to help you... or not at all! It's a program that reads information from a proprietary file with the extension .PIY and applies a patch to any file! As long as this file is the proper one :) .PIY files are plain text files. You can create them using any text editor like notepad, or using my other program "PIY Patch Creator". Before the patch is applied, the program checks that the file to be patched you pointed to has the right name, the right size, and the right hexadecimal values at the right places! It will check that the patch file structure is ok too, propose to backup the old file, and can even revert the patch if it detects that it is already patched (even if a backup was not created). Also features my scrolling caption thingy, APIs to open Common Dialog (no control), set the form to a circe one, allow to move it, and copy a file (for the backup). Don't worry, I didn't invent these APIs myself, I got them from the web here and there :) Don't remember where though, sorry for the lack of credits... The patching engine is all mine though. Oh, to answer a question: this program can NOT patch a file so has to change its size! It's purposed is to apply minor updates, like changing a variable value, little things like that. That's it, take care girls and guys, and I hope you will find an application to this one :)
This programm has a collection of 61 compression algorithms and 20 different coders to do al kind of things with the data This program is totally written in VB and makes no use of any DLL This is an exelent programm for someone who want to do something with compression. Some Algorithms can be slow but the most of them are fast enough considdering its only VB. The most commen algoritms are also inplemented like 'Huffman','LZSS', 'LZW','RLE','Aritmatic','LBE' and some of them are 'invented' by me just to see what the results would be. I hope that most of the problems found by users are fixed
This is an update to 5.0. All the bugs are now fixed!
Shredds Files...i dont know how secure it is but please test it and tell me! =)
Generate file specific and unique CRC strings. Just like the Winzip CRC. Useful for verification of decompression accuracy, decryption accuracy. Installers may use this to detect bad or damaged file.
instead of using the api and having to deal with nulls and UDT's and stuff, y not just use dir(), i have included 2 functions that return string arrays which contain all the files or directorys in the folder u specify. enjoy :)
I wanted code that used components that were mostly likely to be found on a user's machine. VB5STKIT, VB4STKIT, and VB6STKIT all could be used for creating shortcuts, but there is a good chance they weren't already on the user's machine, meaning I'd have to include it in my install package. The Windows Scripting Host is a default installation on Windows 98 and higher, and is likely on a Windows 95 machine. Plus you can include an object test to easily verify the user has the Scripting Host installed.
Lets you create time limit on your programs
This program uses the ASPI layer to manage the basic functions of a tape changer or autoloader. It can inventory the magazine, load and unload a specified tape and clean the tape drive head. It also has an automatic mode. WARNINNG. LARGE file (1.08Mb). Zip also contains SCSI documentation from ANSI and HP, as well as my own document. This program shows how to send RAW SCSI commands to a changer or other device, and get it to do something.
Demonstrate the use of several contols such as RitchTextBox, ImageList , ToolBar, PictureBox,PRINTER, PRINTER PREVIEW, file atributes, file info,file size, file date, Icon Extractor, file exists, file extentio, file type, CPU monior,....some EASY API, fully comented for the hadrest parts I have grabbed some other author's code but I can't find their names back so i you recognize yourself, mail me and 'ill be enjoyed to refer
Suffering with the problem of lack of disk space I knew there must be a directory on my hard disk that contained a lot of information, this is why I wrote this application. Its simple in what it does but can provide useful information about your hard disk space. It allows you to select a drive and then by using a tree control lets you navigate through it displaying hard disk usage for each folder it sees..
This is version 2 of my directory sizer. This has been brought on by the comments left for the previous submission. Its idea is simple but is useful where by it lists sizes of directories in a Treeview. In this version I fixed a little bug with duplicate keys and have also made the directories sorted by space used.
