A UserControl that will capture and report mouse events on form and child controls. I've found it useful for finding position and color info at runtime when working with picure objects and when doing bitmap manipulation.

this code is a slight modification of the menu ocx. created by vbaccelerater. it give menus a windows xp appearance. it does this by placing a background image, chnaging the starting position of the menu separator line and changing the color of the highlight. you will need the subtimer dll, i have included it in the zip file along with the original vbacceletor code. please do not vote for me since this is really not my code. enjoy.

This is the latest version of Dynacom, the combobox replacement. Its even flashier because it can now even autocomplete while you type, just like the internet explorer address bar, and even find list entries by string!!. There is a list of all the user accessable member subs/functions and events inside the zip so check it out before you look at the source. Check it out!!!

Did you ever want to let your Application appear in the SysTray, without any complicated code, completely bug-free and easy to handle using events?Or did you ever want to change the Windows-Settings like Wallpaper with VB?This code does not only contain the source for a UserControl to easily create and handle SysTray-Icons or the code to change the Wallpaper, it is also a complete program to fresh your Desktop up: you can create a list of picture files and the program changes the Wallpaper after adjustable delays, running down your list. Furthermore the program is very flexible, it automatically stretches the pictures so they fit onto the screen, and it can handle all filetypes from Bitmaps over GIFs to JPEGs.Just copy some cool Wallpaper-files into the Folder "Wallpapers", type any number of minutes in the TextBox in my program, and enjoy your always different wallpaper!Also the program runs in the SysTray when minimized, so it doesn't block the TaskBar and is still accessable.About the SysTray-Icon Control:You just have to add the UserControl to your form, and your App appears in the SysTray. If you want 2 Icons in the SysTray, just add another Control. You can change the Icon and the ToolTip Text in the IDE and at runtime, and you can control the User actions easily through events.The control also allows you to display the window's system menu when you click on the Icon, if you want it to.I hope this stuff helps you, and if you like it, please don't forget to leave feedback/votes!

This is a rich-text-box with a built-in line-number panel on the left. Typical use would be for a script editor language IDE. I Couldn't find a decent one on here that did this, so I spent some time doing it myself, and passing it on for you to use (and improve on, of course). It is a pretty basic control, but I did make into a control so you can just pop it onto a form and go (of course, source code for control is included). You can control the Line Number panel width, backcolor and forecolor, along with all textbox stuff (uses RTF in case you want to use my syntax code colorizer submission). The Line number panel automatically adjusts its font to be the same name/size/etc., as the text box so that they line up properly. Hope you find it helpful - if so, votes are always appreciated (kind of makes me feel like it was time well spent).
