************************************************* *** updated to correct day 1 positioning *** ************************************************* *** Updated to use dateserial as per comments *** ************************************************* * I will convert this to a wallpaper stamper * * real soon * ************************************************* Basically draw a formatted calendar month to a picturebox. All in a self contained class. Fancy having a batch app that when you start up your pc, it takes your wallpaper and sticks a calendar in the top right of your wallpaper! This is the class to base that on! I will write the whole thing, but in the meantime a fully functional class!

This is a game I wrote awhile back called DragonQuest. You basically are trying to fight your way to the top and become strong enough to defeat the dragon. Along the way you will visit: your home, weapon/armor/item shop, the trainer to advance your training, the forest to fight monsters and gain experience/gold and to search for the ever ellusive dragon. It uses SQL and all VB coding with an Access database. I know the graphics are horrible so please don't flame me over them. I commented where I could but there is a lot of repetitive code. All battles are performed with a dice-rolling competition (learn how to do random dice rolls and show the correct dice). If the players roll is higher than or equal to the monsters, he/she wins the attack. I hope someone learns something from this. Please comment and vote. I am thinking about upgrading this with DirectX and sounds but I don't know. I guess I'll see what kind of response I get here. Thank You

This is a listbox class that adds several great features to the standard listbox. (1) function draw_header:=This function draws an attractive header at the top of your listbox so it looks more like a listview control. The string you provide should be the text you want for your header, seperated by pipe ""|"" characters. The [container] parameter is the object the listbox is drawn on..ie the form or frame or picturebox (2) sub additems_with_tabs:="This sub allows you to additems to the listbox in such a manner that string ""string|string2|string3"" takes the pipe character and converts it to tabs" (3) sub horiz_scrollbars:="Allows you to add horizontal scrollbars to the listbox. If [scroll_width] is not supplied then the items in the list are scanned and if horizontal scrollbars are required, then it is added, making the listbox wide enouph to view the widest list entry. If [scroll_width] is supplied then you are manually adding them, the width based upon the value you supply for [scroll_width]." (4) function search:="Allows you to search for an item in the listbox. This acts like the autocomplete feature of browsers in that the search is case insensitive, and a partial match returns the index of the first listitem matching so a search of ""VIS"", for example, will return the index of ""visual basic"" entry in the listbox." (5)initialize_listbox:= "This must be the first method called and it sets reference to the listbox you will be referring to in this class." (6) sub hot_tracking (this one is real cool) "Calling this sub and setting [benable] to True makes your listbox have a ""hot-tracking"" effect in that moving your mouse over the listbox causes the item under your mouse to be hilighted" (7) sub individual_item_tooltips:="The tooltip for the listbox displays the contents of the listitem the mouse is over. Useful if the contents of listitems width exceed the width of the listbox itself" (8) sub tabstops:="Set tabstop points for the listbox. Specify in pixels..a value for each succeeding column" (9) sub add_many_items:="Enables you to add multiple items with one call. Each item to add is seperated by a comma."

Flash Desktop Mate can put a transparent flash animation that wanders around your desktop interacting with windows. It's a fun little program I made for my kids last Christmas, but you can pretty easily change to your own animations if you want. It shows window interaction, flash-vb communication, form drag, window on top etc. Must have windows 2000 or XP as it uses layered windows. '98 users can comment out two lines in form_load to try it without transparency, read the readme for more info. You also have to have a recent flash ocx 6 or 7 to run.

Whether your new to api programming and need that special tutorial "buddy" by your side or your an API pro and just are sick of the hassles of having to find, copy, and paste api declarations and their associated constants and types, then this program is for you. (also included with this download is my "RAM purge" program that allows you to instantly reclaim wasted ram) This program sits, as a tiny 20 pixel high menu strip on your desktop. You can place it at the very top of your screen or the very bottom, or anywhere in between..its never in the way because it is so small. This program, the VB API code assistant is basically a huge repository of the most commonly used and needed code, just a mouse click away. One click of a button and a procedure header is pasted in your project for you. Another click and the skeleton of an entire select case structure is pasted for you. Want to move a window without a titlebar but forget get how??..one mouse click away. The program also contains well over 100 of the most common api calls along with their constants and type. This program is similair to the well know API-guide..but it takes it to the next level. The screenshot shows all of the menus built into this tiny, thin interface.

This is a complete web browser with powerful features that give you full control over any webpage. It has the ability to protect your privacy, detect content, and extract any element from the page. It can filter websites based on the content that it finds using one of four powerful filter options. You can edit web pages in real-time and edit any active element on it; including replacing, deleting, and modifying attribute such as color. For example, clicking on a text box (form) on the page, in real-time, you can change its border style, colors, fonts, ect. It’s the features of a WYSIWYG web page editor, except that you are still on the page and can use the page. The built-in text editor used for viewing source code has tools like Find String Between and Does String Exist. You can control Popup Windows ( Popups ) different ways including ‘Ask Me’, ‘Block’, and ‘Allow’. New windows can open in my program instead of Internet Explorer. Detect active cookies and SSL Certificates. Control Download and JavaScript windows and block download requests. My browser includes an Alert Bar which covers top of screen to display important messages when needed. The browser is full featured and has a complete tool bar and panel. The panel can be shown or hidden to give the browser more space. Extract all links on a page into a list, and also show each part of the site in neat categories (treeview) including Links, Elements, Buttons (Inputs), and Images. Filter pages using different methods, and perform an action based on what is found on the site. For example, if anywhere on the site you find “at least 18” you can block the site. You can add HTML to each page you are viewing so that you can make a totally customized filter. You can have it redirect to another page based on what is found in the site. Give it a try, and please vote. The theme shown is for clarity and isn’t included.

This little App is a enhancement of my former PSC Downloader (http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=27782&lngWId=1). What it does: 1) Let you drag and drop code projects from PSC to download sources and info about it. 2) Download sources into a directory of same name as the project (NEW). 3) Download project description. 4) Download project image (Enhanced). 5) Create internet Shortcut in download folder to project homepage at PSC (NEW). 6) Download zip-file. 7) Stays on top. 8) Easily to drag around on the screen.

This is an analog clock. Its hands move like a battery-operated clock! You also have the option to show the second hand or not. You can minimize this application to the system tray as well! Other features include a swinging pendulum, hourly chime, and time synchronization with an atomic time server without using MSWINSCK.OCX (GUARANTEED ACCURACY)! Configurations include start-up on Windows start and setting the windows to be always on top. On load, the main form reshapes to the shape of the clock as you can see in the screenshot. It has ticks for easy time reading. If you like it, plz vote!!! :-P

Count down counter for any date & time which will stick on window desktop. Featured dual language setting, English & German for this version. Allow always on top and side bounding.

Tab Order ia a Visual Basic Add-In that allows you to reorder each Control(s) Tab Order or Tab Indexes to your specifications. Several methods allow you to do this quickly and efficiently. By order of the controls Left position on the form. By order of the controls Top position on the form. By order of selection of controls. By order of individual incrementing tab index or decrementing tab index. This is a true add-in meaning it is run in the IDE. To run and setup see the Help file.

Updated 8 March. Added the ability to cycle through the menu options on the settings form using the enter key and the up/down arrow keys. Only works when at least one item has the focus which is always the case when the form loads. Also, removed X offset property and implemented Y offset so you can adjust the vertical position of the clock and Volume slider. Also added the ability to adjust the height of the Volume slider. Just didn't need the x property because the control automatically centers on the X axis. As for the Y axis, I wanted to give the user absolute control over placement so I added Carles P.V.'s updown control, with his permission of course, to allow the user to position the clock/slider where they want. They can even be reversed and you can put the slider on top and the clock on the bottom if you want. I also added sound and the tooltip when using the mousewheel to adjust the volume. Still implementing some validation and error handling so don't get too extreme with adjusting the volume slider's height. Also working on some bullet-proof error handling and the addition of date/day display. Keep the suggestions coming...

This is a completly 3d racing game with commercial quality!!! It includes a 3d engine with support for advanced techniques like realtime shadows and reflections. You never thought this would be possible in VB. NOTICE: DirectX 8 or higher must be installed on your system. Now about the game itself: it's a Tron clone. The basic game idea of any Tron lightcycle game is that you drive a fast futuristic bike, called lightcycle. It leaves a wall where it goes, so the arena turns into a labyrinth after some time. The goal is to force the enemies to hit a wall while you should try to avoid this for yourself, of course. The last player alive is the winner. REVO TRON also invented a new game mode: the action mode. If it's switched on, you can use speedups, different weapons and shields. You'll get an item after some time which is displayed at the top-right corner of your screen. You can use this item then by pressing the space key. The action mode makes a Tron game become a real action battle! YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE COMPILED EXE VERSION AT http://revotron.tripod.com

UPDATE(Included stay on top option, fixed some minor bugs and added auto apply to settings. This is beta 2, see pic) This program has code from antoher tool I have on this site called CS Internet Tools. But the main purpose of this program was to teach myself much better UI. There are alot of nice things about this program such as the form that will blend into your desktop so it looks like it is part of it. The stats form that will "Roll" out of the main form. Really not to hard to do. It will remember where you have your forms at startup, has many options and is very custmizable. A large part of this code came from other source code not by me. All props go to them. I hope this helps anybody who needs it. Vote if you like. Remember the main purpose of this was to teach myself UI. Anyways I hope you do like it.

'this is probably the crappest encryption going here 'i wrote this cause i saw it on descovery channel 'its an encryption that has been used for ages even used 'in wars 'its supposed to use passwords and encode whole 'sentences but i didn't feel like doing that 'i will soon, mabey this weekend 'anyway what this does it gets the ascii code of the 'uppercase letter in text1 and adds the ascii code of 'the uppercase letter in text2 it then subtracts 64 from 'it and converts this to a new character to test draw a 'table similar to this one: 'A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J ETC. UNTIL Z. 'B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K 'C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K|L 'D 'E 'ETC. UNTIL Z 'YOU GET THE PICTURE 'Now take the word you want to encode say norm and choose 'password say dog . what you do now is go to the 1st 'letter of the password on the top row and the 1st letter 'of the text in the vertical row and move down/across until 'they meet. this is the encoded character. you keep doing 'this until the text is encoded. if the password is at the 'end start at the beginning again. 'to decode do the same as the encryption but now you do 'the password in the vertical side and the text on the 'horizontal side 'tada 'Themba Kriger : wayne_kerr@hushmail.com send me any 'modifications plz! thanx

I think every would be indie game developer has to get a pong/breakout game out of their system.. this one is mine How to play: Click the left mouse button to fire the ball from the paddle twoards the rows of bricks. The object is to keep the ball in play by bouncing it off the paddle until all of the bricks are destroyed. When that happens the level is cleared, a bonus is awarded and a new row of bricks is presented. Capturing the ball: Once the blue meter below the score is full, chime is sounded and the ball can be retreived. To retreive the ball, click the left mouse button and the ball will turn blue and stick to the paddle. It is now ready to be re-fired. At any time you can hit the Esc key to exit the game. Extra ball awarded at 80,000 points. DirectX7 or better is required, along with a soundcard. Other features: Sound effects and shameless self promoting splashscreens (with beatz!) High score keeper. Known bugs: The paddle can move much faster than the ball, which will lead to possible collision issues if the side of the paddle hits the ball really fast. Misc: The ball must reunite with the paddle for the level to be cleared. So if a ball is lost after the last brick is destroyed, you'll need to re-fire. There's other features I wanted to add to this game, but other projects are taking up my time Features that come to mind are: Top 10 score list with name entry. Multiball Different block patterns. Probably more I'm forgetting

Creates a gradient background (VERY FAST). and much cleaner than the screenshot (crappy jpgs). Can do up to 3 different directions! left to right, top to bottom, and diagonal. Please give me aosme feedback on this n vote plz :)

An example of how even with just API calls and some simple math, you can have a lot going on in your game and create some neat effects. Sorry, not much for comments in the code. This example does not incorporate collision detection, but it's a starting point for further development. By the way, if you press "L" or "K" you can activate/de-activate a triple shot feature for the bottom ship ("B" or "N" for the top ship)

This is a test of an Occupied Space algorithm. It organizes objects (Pictureboxes, controls, etc.) on the screen in as little space as possible. The objects can be justified to the top, left, right, and bottom of the screen.
