This is an enhancement of Dr. C's code submitted today. His code dealt with EASY TO IMPLETEMENT API Based AutoCompletion Class which features an auto-dropdown option for VB Combo Boxes. He should get full credit for the class developed. It is very good work. Further enhancements made to his fine work includes (1) a simple database which loads the combo box with values, (2) a primary module containing useful stuff, (3) Added a Gotfocus and LostFocus to Combo box to manipulate the displayed value, (4) added ENTER key acceptance capability. His original code can be found at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=34618&lngWId=1. Users can type in some existing value or create a new value "on-the-fly" into the Combobox. Try it and see. I felt many of you would like the changes so I am posting them. Let me know what you think.

This is the source code to a custom control that will give you more power to work with VB forms. Extra properties, functions, and events including FormMoved, SysTray Icon, Form Shape etc. This is a useful tool even if I do say so myself, I use it and you will notice that if you down load my next Upload called System Mage (Wait and see!) WARNING: Terry has pointed out a glaring error in my code that has baffled me. Somewhere along the line I have coded an error into the property page that causes an error and I haven't located it yet. I'm going to warn everyone about it until I fix it but leave it on here so you can still use the example of the functions in the control. If you see my mistake then pls let me know! Cheers.

mdi non activating & reduce toolbar example (kind of like (photoshop or dreamweaver toolbars) This tutorial shows how to create non-activating toolbars in a mdi app. You can hide, reduce the toolbars, and they do not appear in the menu windowlist. There is no subclassing for the non activating toolbars, and no ocx are used, just a couple of API. There is also an example of subclassing all the child windows on the fly when creating them. That lets you specify a minimum size for all the child windows ! There is no subclassing, and no ocx are used, just a couple of (easy) API.

THIS IS A FIX FOR MY LAST SUBMISSION * ALL FILES ARE INCLUDED! Look in the "RELATED" folder for the tab dock control. COMPILE THE TABDOCK CONTROL, then add it to the MDI form that is included. IF you have any more concerns...contact me on AIM: CAaronWright! This is a nice example of the TabDock control at work. I did not write the control, but I did fix alot of errors in it, so this control should run smoothly now. The example included, however, was written by me, and also works perfectly! The example will show you how to Dock and Undock four different forms all at one time, or individually via Menus. (See screenshot for more detail) This is pretty much like the VB environment, so have fun, and If you like it, please vote, thanks!
