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

This app creates a new button (top right) for each window. This button if clicked on sends the app and all it's threads to the system tray with the correct icon. If you right click on the button, a list of already minimized apps comes up and you can select one and it will be removed from the tray and back to normal (or you can click on the system tray.. either way). If you use it for a day or so, you won't be able to stop using it. Although it is a bit hard to get used to. *UPDATES Since 1.0* ==================== - Multi-thread Windows now supported (ie VB6) - Added 'Balloon' Support for Win2000 users - Added Options Form (not much of an options form though) - Made much better about form - Removed many bugs (thanks for bug reports) - Zip file includes all files (sorry, had files in 2 folders for some reason) * Please leave comments on bug reports if any as I really want to make this app bug free. *

Simple rendering/painting class for 'drop-shadow' effect. Three methods: CreateFromStdPicture, CreateFromDC and Paint. Shadow options: opacity [0,100], xOffset [1+] and yOffset [1+]. // 5Kb. __________________________________________________ Added 'ShadowColor' option and slightly improved 'pvRenderDropShadow' routine (now maping DIB bits: no buffers and '1-pass' blurring). __________________________________________________ Icons supported. New generic method name: CreateFromHandle(). __________________________________________________ Fixed shadow left-top edges.

This code will help you organize your support content (Links, news flash, Top 10). This mimics the common Listbars that you will find in other Desktop application languages like VB. Since it uses standard HTML as it's content, the sky is the LIMIT when adding content. You can customize the Javascript Objects that I have started to really enhance these objects to be very powerful. I have added a Readme.htm file so that you can understand the parameters and the objects that I have created. Almost everything is customizable, color, font, background colors, images, you name it.... If you like them, throw a vote my way. Thanks

This project demonstrates you how to build an alert box like MSN Messenger has. It is displayed in the bottom-right corner of your screen. When an alert is shown while another one is still visible, it is placed on top of the existing box. By moving the mousecursor over the text it appears as a hyperlink. And to get a little bit of the Microsoft feeling I've added a simple gradient found elsewhere on PSC.

This project is very small. It just shows the taskbars' position on the screen (in twips) and it's Left, Right, Top and Bottom values. It returns these in a RECT structure.

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

This project downloads multiple files from the Internet(web) simutaneaously. I used multithreads to do it.       You can active up to 20 threads, that is, you can download 20 files at the same time. Or, you can specify how many threads are active to download files. It provides fast downloads.       Just drag and drop or copy and add URL(s) of web page(html page), image(graphic), mp3, zip or any binary/text file from a webbrowser and click Start! It supports http and ftp protocols.       You can open and save the list of download files(and save path) as a file(simple text file) and open the selected URL or downloaded file, using the popup menu which activates when you click the mouse right button on the list box.       The application window can be fully resized. When you exit the applicaition, it saves the form size and window position in the Windows registry. You can put the application window on the top which makes it easy to grab URLs from web browser. When you select or move the mouse over a download item on the list box, its save path will be shown in the status bar and list box tooltip.       I tried it can be a small complete application as I can. The zip file includes full source codes and an executable also.       This is my first upload to this great server. Many persons and their codes contributed to make my project. I really appreciate their efforts. I used and tried Winsock and Inet controls. They are good. But, finally, I found they are not suitable to just download multiple files as fast as possible.       I found I have to use multithread using an API download function. This project is the result of my efforts. I feel multi thread opens new horizon in my programming skills.       I hope my codes help you to control multi-thread or multitasking tasks when you need them.       Please, enjoy my code and program.

NeoEphemerix 2001 - v1 Beta 2 Written using VB 6 Requires 800x600 display or better This program is for astronomy hobbyists who want to create their own custom VB astronomical almanac program. It is a very complex program consisting hundreds of thousands of orbital computations and represents about 6 month's work so far. The program will generate high-precision ephemerides for the sun and planets from Mercury to Neptune. It has reached the beta level of functionality and I encourage any fellow astro-computationists to give it a try and offer any comments, bug reports and suggestions regarding it. Anyone who ever wanted to learn how to perform their own high-precision planetary orbit computations, may find the source code helpful, but the math required is rather advanced. A new version with even more computations is in the works. Any suggestions from users of this program will be considered in the design of future upgrades. NOTE: Due to the enormous size of the mathematical core modules and the complexity of the computations required to get almanic-like accuracy, the program takes about 30 minutes to compile into an executable on a 200 MHz machine and will produce a finished program about 4.3 megs in size. The visual magnitude computation of the planet Saturn will be applied to a future version, but magnitudes are computed for the other planets. The allowance for the rings contribution to its brightness hasn't been formulated yet. This version of the program does not yet specifically check to see if the date entered is in the proper range for the selected planet, so the following table is provided as a guide. VSOP87 Heliocentric coordinates are theoretically accurate to an arcsecond or better within the following ranges: Mercury to Mars - 2000 BC to 6000 AD Jupiter and Saturn - 1 BC to 4000 AD Uranus and Neptune - 6000 BC to 8000 AD To any users familiar with the astronomical algorithms of Jean Meeus and others, this program applies many of the same concepts, but at a higher level of precision not possible from the limited tables applied in the popular books on astronomical computing. It is based on a Visual BASIC implementation of the full VSOP87 theory of planetary orbits in spherical variables. Its theoretical heliocentric accuracy is to within ±1 arcsecond or better over the ranges specified for each planet in terms of dynamical time. Since the full theory is implemented, the accuracy of the orbit computations compares very favorably with the published almanacs. To achieve this level of accuracy, over 30,000 computational terms are applied to the raw, dynamical orbit computations. The computations include corrections for precession and the long-term effects of relativity on the orbits. Then corrections are applied for light-time, aberration, reduction to the standard FK5 system of coordinates and nutation. FEATURES INCLUDE: Both VSOP87 heliocentric and apparent geocentric ecliptical and equatorial coordinates Ephemerides tables can be generated by the day, hour or minute and can be saved to disk as plain text files Allowance for delta-T can be applied when known. Distances to the planets from the sun or Earth can be displayed in astronomical units, millions of kilometers or miles. Hour angles may be displayed in hours minutes and seconds, decimal hours, degrees minutes and seconds of arc or decimal degrees. Latitudes may be displayed in degrees minutes and seconds of arc or decimal degrees. A table showing the VSOP heliocentric position and geocentric ecliptical and equatorial coordinates for the sun and the eight major planets at any given moment can be displayed Basic astronomical data such as the mean and apparent obliquity of the ecliptic, mean and apparent sidereal time at Greenwich and nutation in longitude can also be computed. The program also has a stay-on-top feature that can be toggled to lock the window in front of other windows when needed. All program settings are preserved when the program terminates and are recalled the next time the program starts up. This program is still a rough draft but functional enough to be useful. I would appreciate any feedback on user of this code who are also into astro-computing, since it would help me to improve on future implementations.

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.

This code shows how to simply allow a user to interactively rotate an image in the manner that applications like MS word and adobe photoshop do (sort of). ' This code takes in to consideration three main concepts provided by other authors and ' extends their concepts together, namely ' Steve McMahon Vbaccelerator.com - His code for DIB Processing and Region Mapping is superb fast and without his site, many of us would still be stuck on our first application! Thanks Steve ' Zubuyer kaolin - His PsCode example on rotation (dial i believe) was used for most of the rotation logic, but was modified to handle the rotation point differently (top right as opposed to the center) ' Florian Egal - His excellent library found on PSCode is the best! If you do not have this file (FoxCBmp3.dl is included in the zip) you will need to do a search on planetsourcecode for florian egal or advanced graphics 3.3 on copy the file to your sys32 directory. '' If any one else sees any code that I did not mark as being theirs, please let me know and i will be happy to add their name. ''''Note, this code is not optimized....and is also a very small part of a much bigger project '''' so there is a lot of code in here that is not really needed for the sake of this example, but i am not ripping it out to due time restrictions '''' regardless, I though this was kinda neat so i thought i would share it with th vb community. '''' Obviously, there needs some work on the rotation logic, as it is a little quirky but , you know.....

This is a awsome Operating System with some features just like Windows. This includes a real working Delete Folder(recycling bin in windows), though i am having trouble with the restore feature. Add a new folder, change the name or delte the folder. Add a text file, deletion and re-naming does work, though i am now working on the text editer or Platnium OS. A run feature, so you can start any program by clicking File - Run. The interface is like a mac, all of the features are in a menu bar at the top. This also includes a "Updater" feature. So when you want to update the OS, you just click "file - Get Updates" then it will take you to a website where you can download updates (site is not up yet). This is just the beginning version of the OS, and there will be many more updates and features to come. All you have to do is just double click on the folder icon to open it. And PLEASE dont be so hard, i am only 13 years old.

I have been tinkering with the Windows API AnimateWindow function, and have wrapped it into a user control, which you can drop onto any top-level window. You simply call the controls CloseAnimation method from the form_unload event, and your window will roll or slide up, down, left, or right, or fade or zoom to nothing. This easy to use control has 2 main properties - the "AnimationEffect", and the "EffectDelay". The included example project here shows how easy it is to use. It seems that this API Function exists in Windows 98, ME, 2000, and XP (I was unable to get this to work with Windows 95 or Windows NT). I got varying levels of effectiveness depending on the OS. Keeping the EffectDelay to a minimum (500 or less) usually produces great results. This project has the default delay at 1000 to exagerate the effect, but you should set to 400 or 500 in your projects. Use the "Project1.vbp" to see the example, or include the CoolAnimate.ctl in your project to just use the user control. Hope this is helpful to some of you.

IP to Serial port Pass-Through Server Update 22-MAR-2005 This project takes TCP and UDP messages from other applications and routes them to the proper serial port to control serial devices (ex. Telephone systems, IP Routers console port etc.) or other device on a PC COM Port from a remote site. Communication can be one way (App --> COM Port) via UDP packets, or Communication can be two way (App COM Port) via a TCP connection. App can support up to four connections to four serial ports. App also starts in the SysTray so it's out of the way and a double click brings it onto the desk top. App has a monitor feature, look at the packets in Raw Text, Verbose Text and HEX values. TCP connections release the serial port when there is no connection In UDP mode, serial port is always active. Application has been tested on Win2000 Pro and XP Pro. Serial applications tested have been … Connection to Comdial Telephone Systems (DXP, DPX Plus, FXS, FXT, FXII) using the programming software (VMMI). Unix box via a Procomm Plus Telnet connection with terminal negotiate off. Kenwood TS870 Amateur Radio serial control Netopia 5000 router console port using Procomm Plus as above. Comments welcome

This is a full version game with complete source code. It is colorful, easy and fun to play. Although the code is commented, I also used long variable names to make the code sort of self-commenting. The game, I think is a fairly robust version of Yahtzee with these helpful features: * Tips on the point value of the dices after each roll, * Highlighting of those scoring categories which will yield points * Sound effects (which can be muted) * Dice color choices * A help section * Four player capability * Ability to save a game in progress * Tracking of top 10 high scores This is part 1. Part 2 has help form and associated images (which I am having trouble uploading)

With this code you will able to move your text from bottom to top in form.Great for Splash Screens. NO OCX needen

Tab Mdi application. A template for your application. Simulates a tabcontrol, but uses mdi forms for added managability. The tab control on top shows/hides your forms.

This creates 7 bouncing balls that follow your cursor around the screen. The balls behave as if joined together with an elastic band - they stretch and bounce of the edges of the screen while following the pointer. Full source code is included. Based on the JavaScript to VB port by Chun Meng. This creates transparent windows shaped like blue balls, that are on top of everything - menus, windows even the taskbar. It's hard to explain or show in the screenshot,but please download and take a look. You will NOT be disappointed!!!!!

I hope I'm not the only person who wants to cringe every time I see something like "You have been online for 1 minutes." 1 minutes?? I see this kind of thing everywhere; here on PSC, even. It looks very unprofessional to me, and it's so easy to fix! That's why I listed this code as beginner level. Hopefully, Planet Source Code will implement this code and I won't have to see that I got an excellent vote from "1 users." ;-) I would like to hear any comments you have about this code. Also, please click to see my other submissions to PSC. My latest program, Music Maker is nearing the top of the Code of the Month list. If I can get a few more votes it would really help me out! :-) Thanks for looking!
