VB Control Manager is an ActiveX control to allow the user to dock controls and resize, move and show/hide them at run-time. This is actually the improvement of my VB Splitter, an ActiveX control to resize docked controls at run-time. I change the name because VB Control Manager can do a lot of more than just to split/resize control. VB Control Manager has 14 properties, 4 methods, and 18 events customly made, plus two collection: a Controls collection (with 20 properties) and a Splitters collection (with 27 properties). To use the control, just place the VB Control Manager control on your form and add several controls on it. That's it! You don't have to add any codes to your form to have basic features of VB Control Manager. Just don't miss the demo (open the VB Control Manager Demo.vbg). Your feedback and votes will be very appreciated.

VB Splitter is a developer-friendly ActiveX control to allow the user to resize docked controls at run-time. You can now have a splitting-capability for any number of controls with only one VB Splitter control and one line of code in your program.

It's very well-commented and has a strong encapsulation technic that making this control an author-friendly ActiveX control. Just don't miss the demo (open the VB Splitter Demo.vbg). Your feedback and vote will be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Display Checkboxes in Listbox Horizontally I've been searching the internet and PSC on how to display checkboxes in a listbox in a horizontal manner but I didn't found any. Perhaps my search keywords are wrong but really I found nothing. I decided to re-examine the listbox property if I can find something that I have overlooked before and there it is. Who would have thought that by merely CHANGING THE COLUMNS PROPERTY TO ANY NUMBER OTHER THAN 0 WOULD ACCOMPLISH WHAT I WANTED TO DO. Many of you may have already known this but for newbies out there, this might help. See the screenshot to see what I mean. For the screenshot below, the setting is: Listbox1.columns = 4 OR In the properties list, change Columns = 0 to Columns = any number you want. The number of columns specified will configure the listbox to show 4 columns in its display window. A horizontal scrollbar will be displayed if the data display occupies more than 4 columns.

The FormattedLabel acts as a standart label control, but by placing commands within the caption, you can display different font effects. Different commands allow you to change bold, italic, underline, strikethru and color styles and insert line breaks. The control also features AutoSize and WordWrap. But i can't do it with transparent background. Buuuu. :o) Hi folks. I change tags to html like but without color tag. In declaration part of UserControl there is constants like CONST cBoldStart = "". You can change tags there but they must by among . Thanks to all for your reqest and tips. p.s. I hope than my programing is better then my english. Sorry :o))))

This is how to use gradient colors in a form. You do not need to do anything or write lines of code to add gradient to your forms. Just put the these three lines in Form_Load Sub Update Note: Thanks for comments, Form_Resize is a better sub if your form is not fixed size

A First On PSC (I Think) An Attempt At A Fully Owner Drawn Treeview Control. Created To Simulate The Outlook 2003 Treeview Control. Each Node Can Have It's Own Properties: ie: Fontcolor,Itemdata etc. Lots Of Properties ie: Gradient Select, Background picture, Background Gradient(Without Picture),Full Row Select, Icons, No Horizontal Scrollbar, XP Theme Support To Many To Mention. Although This Uses A Collection Based Methodoligy I Think It works Quite Good. Drawing Is Fast and Flicker Free. I Have Tested This on Windows XP and Works Really Well Upto 3000 Nodes. As This Is The First Relase Please Don't Be To Harsh As I Know There Are Many Things Still Missing. As Always Feedback And Constructive Critisim is Always Welcome. Kind Regards Gary
