This is basically for all you prankers out there that want to scare your friends or play jokes on them..In this project I made a Module with Functions that will do many things to your Windows, but never harm it in anyway. Like: Hide/Show or Destroy the Windows ToolBar, Taskbar, Clock, Start Button, Icons in the Systray and more. It also lets you Reboot the Users computer, Restart it, Log Off the windows, and Force programs to close if they don't respond. I also made a Function that will make your Form black and cover the whole screen. Well that may seem simple but If the program is hidden from the Close Dialog box and the Control Alt Delete buttons are Disabled and the TaskBar and Toolbar is Hidden plus if the Form is OnTop of everytihng.. It will definatly scare or drive your friends crazy trying to close the program. On top of that, try to even figure out what happened? You could even put a message on the form saying "Virus Uploaded" or some lame junk like that :) To demonstrate these Functions I put together a "Enter Password" form that will do one or more or all of the Above if the user enters the password wrong 3 times.

This is a very small application that makes it obvious when your system has (with or without your knowledge) connected to the Internet. The small on-screen form stays on top when connected but otherwise is quite unobtrusive (sits behind other apps). As it is possible for even commercial applications to connect WITHOUT prompting (they shouldn't but sometimes do), I have found this to be a necessary addition to my desktop. I thought I'd share the little bit of source code I used to create the program. It isn't complex but does use API calls so I've put it in the Intermediate category. Comments/improvements welcome.

This is a realtime ripple of the desktop (see screenshot :)) Makes the bottom of your screen reflect the top in a water like effect... looks kinda cool... If you like it, then please vote. Thnx =)

EliteSpy+ is program for spying windows. You can spy any window and you can manipulate them using the command buttons in Program. You can minimize, maximize, terminate, enable, disable, flash, put on top, etc. This program also contains a code generator which you can use to generate code which will manipulate with the specified window. There is also a list of running process. You can also terminate any process you want. And please vote for this program if you like it!

This very simple code showes how to use Cos and Sin functions to make GREAT player movment in top-down games. A MUST SEE, explots importaint features of the trigonal system and the unit circle to improve game intraction! :)

Greatly simplifies mousepointer control, while at the same time avoiding unnecessary changes (less flicker), and uses DoEvents to assure that the displayed mousepointer changes in a timely manner. -- At the top of any Sub/Function in which you want to control the mousepointer: Dim oMp As CMousePointer -- and -- Set oMp = New CMousepointer -- This will remember the current mousepointer and set the mousepointer to vbHourglass. -- If you actually want to force to vbDefault, as in an error handling Sub/Function, or in cases where you want to set to vbHourglass conditionaly, add: oMp.Houglass = False -- or -- oMp.Value = vbDefault -- You can use the Hourglass or Value properties to change the mousepointer anywhere else in your Function. -- In the exit routine: Set oMp = Nothing -- This will reset the mousepointer to whatever it was on entering the Sub/Function

This is just a little module I threw together... must've been over three years ago. I've used it in nearly all my applications since. It basically takes the application's Command$ string, and turns it into a C/C++ style array of arguments. This is invaluable when writing apps that need to take arguments from the command line. It also has an added method IsSwitch() to find switches in your arguments (like /l, /swap or even complex ones that use pattern matching!) D/L it and give it a try. -- Update 1.6b --: Well, I should've updated this earlier, but oh well. Fixes a problem with IsSwitch(), and re-introduces GetArgs()! GetArgs() is the original method, and allows you to specify not only a custom command-line, but also which arrays you want it to be processed into. -- Update 1.8 --: Ok, this is a pretty big update. It changes the naming scheme of the methods, adds a few, and removes one or two that weren't related. See the top comment for more info. Enjoy, and Merry Christmas!

If you want to draw a picture or image on desk top .you need this code.It will also decorate you desktop with your choice

Full game. Looks good, clean. Has all the rules of the original game. Complete with an undo play, sounds, .chm Help file with included help file project. All source code and graphics included. Already compiled as well. This is a complete program with all features included already enabled. Very well documented source code for newbies. Nearly every line commented. Next release will have skins and network play, if anyone want's to help just drop me an email. Written with VB6 SP3 and not tried with anything else. Tracks top 5 players along with how many games you have played and your average score.

Update: Added a new print option. This is an address label printer. It was originally created for church use and mass mailings. You can have multiple files to help organize your address; the program will remember the last 4 you have opened. You can search for a specific address in a variety of ways. It allows you to move address from one file to another (one at a time or a selected group) by opening a selected paste file. You can Import/Export address from/to text files; you pick the field delimiter (Tab, Semicolon, Comma, or Carriage Return). You can print a single address label, selected address labels, all address labels of selected zip codes, or all address labels in a file at a selected starting row and column. You can print a single page of labels beginning with the first address you select. You can use it to print nametags by selecting the print option "Print Names Only". You can create and save different printing schemes which contain label size/layouts as well as what font will be used to print. You can view/edit one address at a time or view all the address in a spreadsheet format. In the spreadsheet, you can filter the information displayed to show only the address you want. The data in the spreadsheet can be sorted by column heading in either ascending or descending order. Included with this project are several cls files, which contain a lot code that you will find very useful to use in your project such as: * Play wave files stored in a resource file. * Many screen utilities like Center Form, Vertically Fit Form to Screen, and Make on top. * File Open and File Save dialog boxes without using an OCX. * Auto match Combo Boxes. * Masked Text. * Format text as it is typed. There are two versions of the project included, PrintLabels_MsGrid.vbp and PrintLabels_SheridanGrid.vbp. PrintLabels_SheridanGrid.vbp uses the Sheridan Data Widgets and PrintLabels_MsGrid.vbp uses Microsoft's data grid control. To select a group of connected rows using the mouse and the shift key, you need to click somewhere inside the grid; to select several non-connected rows using the mouse and control key you need to click on the Record Selectors bar located on the left side of the grid. The dbgrid32.ocx can be found it on your Visual Basic CD under ?:\Common\Tools\VB\Controls. You can find the ADO version of this project at: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=36736&lngWId=1

This code shows make form, modules and how to use command button, pictures, combo box,timers etc. while start learning VB.This code also shows some advanced concepts like running the application in background (system tray) and how to make your form stay on top of all the running applications.

Updated! Very nice command button (ActiveX control) with gradient filling. If client screen color depth is 256 colors or less – looks as regular command button. You can change caption-image order (position) from left to right or top to bottom. When created this control - used two algorithms from www.planet-source-code.com. Want to say personal thank you to: Rocky Clark (Gradient filter algorithm); Manuel Augusto Santos (Emboss filter algorithm). Please rate it! E-mail bugs to SergeyO70@HotMail.com. Feel free to use this control in your application (if you'd like to) as much as you want. If you'll modify it - please leave my name in the About box! Enjoy! PS: (Please rate it)

Added New - Fully Functional Screensaver with source using my animation technique! Also added one more new demo - Geometry. Flickerless, Smooth Animation using pure VB with No OCXs, DLLs, ASM or DriectX. Pure VB. This Entry gives you the code that I created and have used in all of my screen savers for years. The code included is pure VB code (with just a few APIs declared and utilized). Most of the code is in the "CodePage.Bas" module. This contains all of the initialization, variable definitions and declarations and animation code. If you like it, give me a vote or two. If I get votes, I'll know you are interested and I'll create a complete documentation package around this. Demos included are... Demo_BouncingBalls.exe - About 30 colored balls bouncing all around the screen (Source included). Demo_BouncingSantas.exe - Bunches of little Santas practicing thier jumping for the upcoming holiday season. Demo_Geometry.exe - Bunches of geometric images floating around the screen. Demo_UFO_ScreenSaver.Scr - Aliens have taken over your desk top. All Demos have full source code in zip format. UFOsaver.scr - A complete, fully functional screensaver using my animation techniques (source included)!!! Thanks. Doug Puckett ( dpuckett@thelittleman.com )

Our support department handles roughly 300 emails a week that come into our mailbox in Outlook. Each details a problem of some sort and we respond with a resolution. In case there is a followup question, we've taken to creating a subfolder in outlook (by name of the company) and then just keep all the emails in that folder. From time to time, archive the old ones. As you can imagine, these tend to build up and if you don't keep on top of things, you might have a couple hundred of these to do. Of course, not everyone who emails us tells us their company so you have to figure out where they should be filed which takes additional time. Now, wouldn't it be nice if there was a program that could help us out? As it turns out, there is now. This is the program (called simply Initial.exe) that will start in a specific folder and then all the subfolders for all the stored emails. It then will update a SQL database using DAO with the first email address on the list and the name of the folder that it belongs to. This in itself could be handy for creating a mass mailing list perhaps of people who have ever emailed you. The ultimate use for this, of course, is to have a program that would take all the email from specific folder (this was the sent-items folder), find the email address of the sender, locate the correct folder name in the SQL database to file it under, then move it automatically. There is some built in help, it uses the Genie character (wanted to play around with that a bit). This program was put together pretty quickly so isn't the prettiest and it hard coded here & there for our specific needs but should be fairly readable. It demonstrates the MAPI function library, Outlook functions, DAO & SQL, and MS Character use. This could very easily be switched to using an Access DB (by changing the connection string) which is actually what I tested it with before going "live". If this is useful to you, vote for it or just drop me a line. I know it has saved my department a ton of time.

The wrapper is designed to take control of all associated containers/controls in three easy steps:- 1. Hook a TabStrip control; 2. assign controls to tabs; & 3. set how the controls will be managed - the wrapper will do the rest! Other features include container management, automatic positioning (center, top-left, bottom right, etc...) and auto-Fit. The wrapper makes use of object pointers (weak object references) to aviod circular references. All code is cleanly formatted and well commented. The included program demonstrates how easy the wrapper class is to use - Take note of the placement of the different types of associated controls and how the wrapper fixes up their containers, visibility and positioning on start-up. If you use the TabStrip control or have wanted to, then this is for you!

This about screen scrolls text upwards, fading in at the bottom, and fading out at the top. You can insert this screen into any project as long as you also include the clsBitmap class. The class itself contains some very usefull code for any program using api graphics. Any feedback or votes are very welcome. Thank you

I am often guilty of saying to my wife that I'll be on the PC for half an hour... only to get a knock on the door 3 hours later!! Not a happy wife! This alarm clock is the perfect remedy. You set a date/time and it sits unobtrusively on the screen. At the specified dat/time it will raise a message and/or play a WAV and/or execute an app on the alarm time! It's also has some excellent functions in it for file exists, registry save/get setting, wav playing, captionless form drag, stay on top, etc, etc

NOT a beginners code I'm afraid. The game code itself is really intermediatary/beginner, but the graphics code uses a lot of api calls. The demo ai is fairly simple, but it's managed to get a top score so far of 240. My current best is a measly 170. Fully customisable, including play-area size, player starting and finishing speeds, ai speed (you can let it cheat). Oh yeah, please note that the ai enters it's own score unless you set it not to :) Any comments are welcome (so are any votes). Enjoy the code and feel free to use or distribute it.
