Embed binary files within your programs to be written out to the file system once the program runs. This demonstration creates a Word document.

Determines if a file is old. I use this when I loop through the files in a "temp" directory to determine if I should delete old files on a website. Take note - the function looks at the last modified date rather then the date created.

Navigate through a website within a small area of the screen.

You can drag (multiple or just one) files from a program like windows explorer or a common dialog onto a listbox & add them all to it, & parse before adding to just get the dir, filename or the whole thing.

ASP File Upload v1.5 will provide you with the customizable, easy-to-use functionality to upload files to your server using pure ASP. This is a customized version of Karl Grear's "Form Based File Upload Using Pure ASP." According to Karl: "With this code you will be able to save a file in any directory that the anonymous account assigned to it (usually IUSER_machinename) has access to so be careful. I should note that the server needs ADO, ADOX and the File System Object installed on it."

I was working on a scriptlet to allow users to choose a color. A color wheel is displayed with an assortment of colors - most of witch are web-safe. Clicking on a color causes it to be outlined and raise an event that a color was chosen. This object mimics one of the color-picker forms found in Microsoft Office 2000. This scriplet does not yet raise events or expose properties. The basics, however are available for you to be amazed.

Simulate the tab control found at the bottom of popular programs such as visual Interdev and Front Page.

Forces users to have choice of downloading a binary file. This was becomming a problem with Word documents - as they would either open within the browser or open externally. You may need to change the FileName variable.

This is a program to record callers to a helpdesk. It uses a very good example of records, if you are looking for how to create records then this code is for you. Special thanks to Mark Robert Strange for his excellent flicker-free gradient scrolling credits screen that I've incorporated into my program, hope this is helpful. Enjoy ...

This is the simplest way I could find of sending a file across a network or the Internet. You can send any type of file (from text documents to movies) and any size of file. I downloaded many file transfer programs and found them either way too long-winded or quite short but very difficult to understand. Therefore once I understood how to do it I wrote my own program thats not only short, but incredibly simple and capable of sending any type of file (big or small). The code is fully commented and easy to understand. Enjoy...

Use NetZero, the free ISP? Hate that advertisement banner? Well This gets rid of it.. Plain and simple.

An example of how to rename files using code (Very simple)

This code is used to send form information to your email account. Essentially, it sends an HTML email with some basic information to an email account and a link to view the completed form. It uses CDONTS to send the information. The link contains all the information the user entered on the form and when you click on the link, it populates the form with that information. No database needed! It is really simple but since no one else has submitted something like this, I thought I would make my own contribution. There are three .asp files (and some graphics) and one .htm file and the source is very straight forward. Unzip to your wwwroot and give it a try! Be sure to change the SendTo address so it goes to your email account. Good luck!

More code from me shwoing the .NET way to do common things that used to require mucho API.. This is a BrowseForFolder class that uses the .NET framework only... Havent seen this done yet without API. Enjoy..and please vote if you like it and use it.

Offers 6 ini functions that are extremely useful. Handy, because it has a "setup" function that specifies the filename and the number of characters you'ld like to retrieve (max) so that you don't have to re-specify them every time you write to your INI file (great if you only have one or two INI files per project). Someone else did a "complete INI module" that actually hard-code edited the ini file to find out the number of sections, and so on, but this one uses in-built features of GetPrivateProfileString. Have fun! Read_Ini -- Returns a string with the appropriate INI key in it Write_Ini -- Writes to a specific ini key Read_Sections -- Returns a Chr(0) delimited string containing all the [Sections] of the INI file Read_Keys -- Same as above, but returns all the keys=values under the appropriate section Delete_Key and Delete_Section do just what they say =) Note: vbCrLf's are turned into a funky string because I noticed when writing vbcrlf's to ini files it has the tendency to screw up and actually place them on separate lines so you can't retrieve the whole thing again. The funky string is recognized by this module when you read the values in again, and converts em back to vbCrLf

Removed bug causing small menus to be displayed off-center. This is a .NET component written in C# that allows you to place an animated "circular menu" within your applications. This type of menu is a popup menu designed myself and a group of interface engineers to be more efficient and appealing to end users. This popup menu animates its icons circularly around the click position, ensuring that the user moves the same distance to any desired option. Enclosed within this package are the library projects (C#), two tutorial projects (VB.NET and C#), a Word tutorial, a quick HTML tutorial, an installer project, a compiled help file and a PDF help file. NOTE: The documentation was created with NDoc, which you can find at http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/; the PDF documentation was generated with NDoc and Miktex, and their implementation is apparently buggy. As a result, all cross-reference links in the PDF did not show up. Also note: PSC removed an EXE file required for the installer project to compile. This EXE file, H2reg.exe and its accompanying .INI file, allow the installer to register the Circular Menu help files with Visual Studio. They are recommended by NDoc as explained on this page: http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/content/vsnet-deploying.htm
