This is a Label replacement control that gives you some limited CSS features (BorderRadius, Border, Margin, Padding, Opacity) and Unicode support. Rounded corners are limited because they are implemented using Windows API RoundRect which doesn't give the nicest results in every case.For a more complete description visit VBForums thread: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=626737
It is hard to get Unicode in VB6. The biggest reason is the nowhere-to-be-found support in any of the native controls. In the past few years people have been mostly forced to commercial solutions or to move to another language. With UniControls I try to change this by providing some of the most essential tools for working with Unicode. **** This is the summer release. What you find here are a few powerful controls, and some that are still in an earlier level of development, yet useful for many tasks. Included: UniCaption, UniCommand, UniDialog, UniLabel, UniList, UniMenu & UniText, with some additional bonus code. **** NOTE: despite these controls using SelfSub, SelfHook and SelfCallback by Paul Caton and LaVolpe, not all of these controls are Stop button safe. This is because of UserControl's limited OLE interface, which has forced to some IOleInActivePlaceObject hacking, for which there currently is no perfectly IDE safe solution. If I didn't use it, I would have to use complex hooking to capture Enter, Escape, Tabulator, arrow keys and other navigation keys. **** Hopefully you enjoy these controls!
It is very pleasure for me to upload this kind of project. This is a menu bar project which is created in Flash 8 and working in VB 6.0 with the help of FSCOMMAND. You can change the Menu Items by editing "MENUBAR.XML" file. SPECIAL THANKS to Mr Muhammad Akhtar to who helped me to understand and work with FLASH and VB. In case of any Query, feel free to contact me Name: Hafiz Muhammad Farooq Email: hafizm.farooq@hotmail.com

This article show how you can do custom AboutBox in custom control (usercontrol).
Simple time control I made to satisfy my needs in one of my softwares. Might as well publish the source so that everyone can enjoy it... Similar to DTpicker time control but it has some changes and other stuff... Just add the User Control to your project and it's ready to use... no OCX's needed. Feel free to modify etc, but respect my copyrights :p
This is a draggable toolwindow inside another window. Normally windows can only be inside an MDI form, but this is a great control which looks and acts like a real window. Completely customizable!!! If you plan to place many toolwindows inside a form, try duplicating the source files and adding each toolwindow as a separate toolwindow so you can customize them according to your needs. [ See another demonstration of this control in my other project: City Builder (txtCodeId=57486&lngWId=1)]

Sub Classes the standard ComboBox and makes it look like the Windows XP one
Sort of Emulates the Windows XP Statusbar
Lots of people including me, have or still are, creating custom controls that emulate the look and feel of Windows XP. To some this may seem as a waste of time because a Manifest will do all the hard work for you and repaint the boring normal controls in the new XP look. However so many client machines don't have XP yet and if someone has made these XP style of controls for you then why not use them. Also if you want to use a Progress Bar, Status Bar or Tab Strip control you still have to carry around that Comctrl32.ocx which almost every Vb`er hates. If its a Tab Strip control you are looking for, then I hope this one is good enough for you to freely use in any of your projects. The control is far from being perfect and future enhancements will be made when I have the time. Enjoy
A Tab strip control emulating the look of Win XP Looks the same as version 1 but more features.
A graphical form
This control uses an invisible mask along with a mask type of text, numeric, or date. A user can only type in an entry that fits the mask (see html page included). There is plenty of code in here that could be ripped out and placed in other controls.
Enhanced combobox with various levels of Auto complete (including Access style), Auto drop down, settable dropdown width, and an easier coding interface.
[v 1.01] This is a control that provide selection one of more options. It's builded from standard option button control but instead of true/false it returns an index of selected option. It's usefull when you need many options controls.
This usercontrol is a very interactive replacement for old VB shape control. Interactive just in IDE, the end user of an app gets the nice design only. But the programmer maybe gets the most interactive VB usercontrol ever ;-) ! Adjust gradient parameters, postions, designs directly on the screen, no need to use the property box for every single value. Thx to Carles P.V. we have fantastic gradients and thx to Lavolpe we have MANY fancy forms for modern screen designs. Anti-aliased circles, endless combinations of colors with shapes are inviting to play arround with. All put together in a selfcontained, ownerdrawn and documented usercontrol (without any subclassing or timers) by Light Templer. Enjoy ;-) _________ UPDATE 1: (1) Fixed the error raised when drop a new control error onto form with 'Break on all Errors' switch activated. (2) Added a VB5 "version" - Its totally the same control just stripped out the usercontrol property VB5 don't have (ClipBehavior). Sorry for just a simple demo form here. _________ UPDATE 2: Rebuild the demo form and added a 2nd (more serious) demo as requested. _________ UPDATE 3: Fixed the problem coming from german VB version (storage format of single var properties in .frm demo file) with a universal small function to get the value in all cases. _________ UPDATE 4: Finally got this strange error of don't working on some systems! A BIG sorry! Now it should be fine on every VB / SP version.
