This is a user control to replace the standard listbox control. It has many more options then the default listbox control, plus more pleasently looking views. Can also have check boxes/options in the listbox. A progress bar may also be added. The items in the box can have custom colors and the messages may be multicolored by using the color codes. Check it out! I'd love to see your comments.

This is an update to my previous submission. New updates include: *A picture can be added to the begining of each item, with optional transparency. *Bold, Italic, Underline can be added to the items, with the ability to have only part of the string any of those three (or a combo of them) *Can Enabled/Disable the whole listbox *Has a Sorted property to sort the list in ABC order. (A bit slow, but its the best I could make, 100 items takes about 1 second) *MultiSelect, ability to select more then 1 item, while holding down the CTRL button. Other original features: *Multicolored items *Check/Option items *Horizontal Scrollbar *Find method and FindInStr. >Find matches exact string >FindInstr works if the input is found anywhere in the item, it will be triggered as found. *Enabled/Disable certain items *Progressbar Item *Fill View as either Lined or NoStyle >Lined with have every other item a light grey, and the other items white. *5 Different Border Styles >Raised >Sunken >Etched >Bumped >Line >None To come: A Print method that will allow you to print out the list in a number of formats. I am still having some trouble on this part, but it will come.

MY VERY FIRST ACTIVEX CONTROL so please go easy on me! Its just a SIMPLE container that looks nice. I just decided to do this because i wanted something that i could use over and over again. Ability to change the font, font colour, border colours (header and the main border) and background colours. Still not 100% finished, plenty more to go in, any feedback will be appreciated.

This is a generalization of the clsPrintAvery5352 code submitted by Bernard J. Tucker on 11/27/1999. This version of the class will print any label that the calling routine can describe. The zip also contains a VB project to show the use and an Access database of label partameters from the Avery Web site (legal).

By creating a custom type library it is possible to implement IActiveScriptSite directly in VB and add Scripting support to your VB apps without having to include the MSScript control. Includes support for AddObject and Eval() Dont forget to check out the open source section of my site for more stuff http://sandsprite.com/openSource.html

lightweight compile in display bar... give users something to look at while they are waiting...4 animations to choose from..adds about 16k to your exe. Dont forget to check my sight for more stuff: http://geocities.com/dzzie

With only 6 lines of code, create an awesome new tab replacement that can be customized to any color, font and size that fits your application.

I worked again on this control and, as suggested, I combined several chart types. Also, I introduced the mean value to be displayed or not. I'm continuing in developing it, for example to allow series and Gantt style. Thank you again for your interest and vote.

I found on PSC the ActiveChart control and decided to use it in my programs, but it was not fully customizable. So, I implemented some new features. I'm still working on it for other customizations. Thanks for your interest in my work and thank you to MIRAGE for the basic idea.

This application demonstrates a customized popup menu, with a "rolling" (vertically scrolled and gradually revealed) effect. It works by using a second form embedded within the first as the popup menu. For more code samples visit my personal web site: click above on my full name.

Remember the custom defined colors for the common_color_dialog.

Little dll that allow you to transform a picture box to a progressbar. Using it is really simple and give you lot of effects (see screenshot), just see the read-me file inside the zip. Enjoy it!

WhizzoMenu Control. This control uses forms,graphical effects and hard code. all you have to do is understand how to use my control to create your own menus. This control doesn't use VB's Menu system and it doesn't use Windows Menu API. This control is also customizable. See the screenshot.

This control, when dropped on a borderless form will size itself to that of the form, and wala you have a new window. The window has all the abilities of the normal windows, it can be maximized, minimized, and can be manually resized. Also has a nifty lost and got focus effect, like that seen in Visio 2000 Professional. If you like this please drop me a line and tell me, or if you want to see something in it that isn't and don't know how to do it then let me know and I'll try. Once you load the control, click on the (Custom) property to see how to set up the form focus effect (only 2 lines) ***Update 1 11/21/01*** I found a temporary solution to the Focus effects problem but I'm still looking for a better method, check the control out and let me know if you know of a way to solve this is like api or something. ***Update 2 11/21/01*** FORM FOCUS EVENT PROBLEM FIXED, COMPLETELY FUCTIONAL NOW.... This control now uses SmartSubClass from www.vbsmart.com, you must have it in order to use this control, but its worth it, they also have some other sweet free controls..

Subforms in VB UPDATED!!!! This OCX allows you to set any one form in your project as a parent form and display all other forms within the project as a subform within a client area of the parent form. A demo client project within a .vbg is included (run_this.vbg). Register the .ocx using regsvr32 first. Major news: User control with CAPTION User control MOVEABLE at runtime User control SIZEABLE at runtime Change the ATTACHED Window Style Event GetAttachedWindowStyle(ByRef NewStyle As Long) (you can set your own Attached Window Style) Event NewStyle(ByVal PropertyName As String, ByVal newValue As Boolean)

Makes a "Trekkie" looking form by simply dropping the control on the form. Very light-weight, not a ton of features, but a very nice effect. There are two versions, one is a form that has all the code written into it, the other is a form utilizing the cool form control as an example of how much cleaner a project is when things like this are compartmentalized.

The EBSlider control is a self-contained, horizontal/vertical slider control written entirely in VB6.

This project is an enhancement/rewrite of another submission (see below). This project displays advanced Win2K/XP style "balloons". This version includes a title bar that can be used to "drag" the ballon, RTF support, scrollable text, simple rounded rectangle code, API border drawing code, and completely dynamic resizable balloon. See the readme in the project for details from original author and notes about enhancements. FYI: I had offerred to send this new code to the author for inclusion in the original but he wanted to keep his code separate so I figured I would go ahead and post my enhancements for everyone with his permission. (see the chat on the original post) ------ Clip from other submission ----- This code will show Windows 2000/XP-style popup balloons. They were introduced in Windows 2000, and in XP they're seen all over, especially in the system tray. But Microsoft hasn't released how to use them yet (except for tray icons),and--if they did--it would only work on Windows 2000 or later. This project shows you how you can use these balloons in your programs. Instead of relying on Windows to make them, this program makes its own. Therefore, it will not only work with Windows 2000 and XP, but also with all other versions of Windows (down to 95). .....

If you must let people resize things at runtime, then this is a good solution. Plz, vote!

This control is just an image of a dashboard fuel gauge with a needle pointing to the percentage done. It's very simple and can be modified to use other images. It has the typical min, max, value properties along with a property for showing the value label. The source is not commented much, but it's mostly self explanatory. I hope you like it, and modify it to suite your needs. PLEASE VOTE, I'd like to continue making more gauges and switches, so inspire me!
