Having seen so many code snips that either only work with Windows9x or return incorrect values, I decided to write one that should work accross ALL version of Windows. I was able to find multiple pieces of code all over the place and assembled them into a neat little ActiveX control. This usercontrol can be be used visually, and optionally display the history of any if the following values; CPU Load %, Memory Load %, Free Pagefile %, Free Virtual Memory % and the HD Free space %. The control can also be hidden and used to manually retrieve the values below using the GetCurrentSystemLevels routine. This allows you to retrieve current system levels and isplay the information using your own layout/design; CPULoadPercent, MemoryLoadPercent, PhysicalMemoryTotal, PhysicalMemoryAvailable, PhysicalMemoryAvailablePercent, PageFileTotal, PageFileAvailable, PageFileAvailablePercent, VirtualMemoryTotal, VirtualMemoryAvailable, VirtualMemoryAvailablePercent, HDTotalBytes, HDTotalFreeBytes, HDAvailableFreeBytes, HDTotalBytesUsed, HDAvailablePercent The visual look of the control is fully customizable. All colors can be modified to fit the individual needs of developers.
This demonstrates how to use the windows api to dynamically (and quickly) reshape a form without hogging resources. It Doesn't Even Blink! PLEASE VOTE!
A replacement for the antiquated FileListBox. This control sets the ListView's imagelist to the system imagelist which alleviates the need for an ImageList control to store file icons and is therefore less resource intensive. It is subclassed so that the LV doesn't remove the system imagelist assignment. Some other improvements over my previous submission: 1) Allows user to remove the Size, Type, Date columns if desired, plus hide the columnheaders in Report mode--this makes it look like the FileListBox with icons. 2) Added Horizontal and Vertical ledger styles (see screenshot) with the option to change the colors. 3) Column header sort icons. Enjoy.
This is a tool to help with building the ToolboxBitmap pictures for your usercontrols. The docs state that best results are obtained by using a 16x15 bitmap. Through experimentation I've learned that the Transparent color the IDE uses is at x=0, y=14 (lower left corner). Enjoy.

Update---------------------------------------- This is an improved version of previos DLL. Now it handles child controls of the container control which is being undocked, plus I've fixed the problem with changing focus. Also I've included test project so you can see how it is suppose to work. Old --------------------------------------------- This class allows to undock any control on the form and drag it around. Furthermore, during Undocked state events will be still received at the same place. It is an emulation of the Microsofts abilities to undock panels (ex VB Properties and Toolbar)

this http client user control (ocx) makes the downloading of webpages, files, whatever, greatly simplified and demonstrates some very key internet programming concepts such as the use of the winsock control, protocol programming, as well as user control properties, property bags, and things like that. The control returns any http errors, messages, and also handles redirects. vote if you want, but i don't upload for rating, just to help. later.
