Whant to make your form on-top of of all other applications, well this is the code for you!

INTRODUCTION: I searched a lot For articles about VB & Midi, found some, but mostly they only handled short messages, the easy part. Here I needed To go further To solve a problem I had. The project turned out To be a bit sizy, but it embeds a lot of knowledge that was hard To find. So it could mean a great deal To someone starting With programming midi. The main objective was To automate convertions of Roland SC-55 System Exclusive Bulk Dumps into a shorter alternative, using as much short messages As possible, so other modules can receive the messages too. Other features are mixing the SC settings, generate fade In/outs, Read & write midi, more Or less wysiwyg printing of the dump values, midi piano, midi thru, etc. PURPOSE: Analyse SC-55 System Exclusive bulk dumps Generate alternatives for this huge bulkdump in case a high percentage are default data Edit the Sound Canvas settings ENVIRONMENT: This is a VB5 project. Since the WebBrowser control is used (provided with Windows 95) it can be run under Windows 95, but Windows NT doesn't install this control (~ SHDOCVW.DLL) automatically, so there you should find a way to install it yourself. No other (than basic VB) controls are used.

Get the RGB value of a color under your mouse pointer! Really usefull for image editing programs! Enjoy :)

Hi! So here I am again .. first of all let me tell you that this code is done by taking lot of help from various programming ideas that are available on the net .. by that I mean .. like the use of Image ComboList ... adding images to the ImageList at runtimes and stuff ... but anyway the idea behind his code is very much mine and till now I have not found anyone coming up with this idea of making font selector .. if there are codes with my idea then I beg pardon it is only coincidence and not my fault .... Well it is basically a font selector like you see in Microsoft Word or something where there is a preview of the fonts that you are selecting .. it is cool please download it to get a feel of what is going on ..... I have not made very detailed analysis of the code as it is very clearly Understood. I have used very long names for objects as I am feeling little down today and I don't know what to do .. so some crazy things like long variable and controls name .... Anyway I hope you guys like it and use it where you want it to and please vote for me if you like it ... Thanks .... 'Biswajyoti Das (askbiswa@hotmail.com)

a Liquid Character Display with the ability to display a picture too. check out picture. Some Bugs fixed and the ability to load an external "charset" from a bitmap (2 included samples. 1 with 126 chars and the other with 255 chars). Any feedback is welcome (good and bad). If u fix a nice charset for it i'd like to have it so it might be included in next releases. Please vote for the original posting at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=32233&lngWId=1

This class allows you to replace the standard Visual Basic menu with one that supports many more features, some of which include: Addition of bitmaps or icons to menu items (supports any size). Optional MonoDefault state will only colorize icons of menu items that are selected (a la Outlook Express) Extended keyboard shortcut keys, using Ctrl+, Shift+, Ctrl+Shift+, combinations, function keys, system keys, the menu and print keys, and the CapsLock key. Draws in the style of the Office 97 menu bar. Implements Visual Studio-menu style check marks and radio buttons. Implements Hot-tracking, Hot-lighted and Clear-box highlighting visual effects. Implements a "CaptionSeperator" item-type which is a Seperator Bar with scaled, centered text and optional background coloring and submenu support. Implements Color-select, a type of highlighting that lets the highlight bar be different than the system default Background gradients Multi-line menu items DBCS (Unicode) support for languages such as Chinese Each feature is Item-by-item. You can have a whole menu full of items that colorize or highlight differently. Version Upgrades: 4.1 (07/01/2001), 4.0 (06/18/01), 3.0 (02/22/2001) and 2.3 (10/28/2000): New Features include: Each item may have its own Font, right-justification of menu items, and support for menu breaks and menu bar-breaks.

Lock's user resize in a form without FLASH. It's very easy, just put MDLockResize.OCX in a form and set the properties MaxFormHeight, MaxFormWidth, minFormHeight, minFormWidth.

Progress bars are quite standard... but boring to look at! So how about a Progress Circle? This works just like MS progress bar AND has several enhancements such a colours and captions. I have included the code for the ocx control as well as the test app shown in the screen shot.

although i am in mailing list of PSC for over a year, i decided to upload one my codes that i think could be useful for someone. it's a very cool digital marquee. it supports 5 different colors, scrolling direction, interval... pretty good for an application

This is a usercontrol written in vb6 that enables you to create your own dynamic popup menus. For example, instead of creating hidden menu's in the menu editor, giving each one a name, or, creating an array of holders for dynamic entries, you can simply do this: UserChoice = popMenu.Popup("item1,item2,item3") A seemingly simply thing, but has been quite useful for my projects, so I thought I would pass it on. It started off as a class, but I turned it into a user control so it would be easier to use for beginners. Hope you find it useful -

***********Default button bug fixed*********** This is a custom message box generator.It provides the following functionalities that are not provided by the MsgBox function in VB. 1.Allows you to change the font of the message. 2.Allows you to change the font color of the message. 3.Allows you to set italic font for the message. 4.Allows you to set bold font for the message. 5.Allows you to change the caption of the buttons. 6.You can have as many buttons as you want on the message box. 7.The Message box has a totally new border style. 8.You can also set the AutoUnloadTime so that the MessageBox will automatically terminate when the specified time had elapsed returning the first button value. 9.The MessageBoxEx function used to create the messagebox returns the number of button pressed starting from zero. 10.Use the AddButton method to add as many buttons as you like. (Max 255 i think this is more than enough.)
