Lists all of the files in a directory matching the pattern entered in the form.

Used to view huge files. I use daily to review last 1mb of 30+ meg files. Loads only portions of a file (by chunk size or percentage) instead of entire file & is quick. Feel free to use & abuse as you like.

Allows you to open a VB6 Project, View all forms in it, View all Controls on any given form, and preview the form at runtime. A good example on file and String Handling, and Dynamic Control creation.

CD Indexer is a program in whish you can make mirrors of drives/CD's. This program works just like Advantage Disk Catalog. Why use this program? Is much faster!!!!! This program is totaly FREEWARE, just like Drive Mirror 1.x and 2.x was. For more help or info, go to the website: http://www.cdindexer.tk

This was my final project for VB6 class its not that intense but what can you expect from an introduction to VB6 class next quarter will be better so. But its a computer repair shop program it uses files and a few different forms I know theres modifications to make it better but I dont know how to do them but any help from any experienced programmers would be appreciated. Might need to change the dirrectory that it finds the file from had it running from my floppy disk.

The function fileexists will return true or false and it works on all files (that includes hidden and system files). It also works over the network. I have to thank Joseph M. Ferris for the API Call. Guess what this code has no copyright because this website is open source. Some people are so obsessed with copyrighting every little thing they find out in VB. I once saw someone claim the copyright to the Kill Function. What a pinhead.

I wrote this for someone who needed to know how to read in all the file extensions in a directory and keep updating it when changing directories. It uses InStr to find the "." and then does a bubble sort (not efficient I know).

this document explains how can you control parallel port.

Here is what you need. Control ports from NT and W2K. You can INPUT and OUTPUT from any port. (parallel, serial, joystick, usb...)

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.

This code will show you how to do basic parallel port programming. This particular example shows you how to light up LED's that are plugged into the parallel port.

This project shows how you can write values to an exe file (and change it). NO API and highly commented. First, make the test_exe.exe. Then start read_write project, change values and click Write. You'll se that test_exe.exe has changed!!! Please vote and leave comments.

File Input Output Append

DOS Console class. Allowing an application to write output to a DOS console and optional log file.

allows only numbers to be entered into a textbox!!! very useful!!

It protects files and folders from users.

learn how to use the Common Dialog Control the right way!!! please vote or at least comment!!

Learn how to use SHFileOperation and ShellExecute to send files and folders to recycle bin, create new folders, and open files with any file extension. Also, this code demonstrates how to navigate through your hard drive.

Simple example of how to select (and retrieve) multiple filenames when using a common-dialog and adding them to a listbox.

(v1.01) -- Some function to manipulate file strings. GetFileName > Returns only the filename -- GetExtension > Returns file extension (optional lowercase) -- GetFileNoExtension (New) > Returns filename without extension -- GetPath > Returns full path. (optional without drive) -- GetDrive > Returns drive (optional include "\") .. Also fixed a horrible bug in the GetFilePath. Screenshot is from v1.0
