This is an add-in for adding resizing capabilities to your projects. It is based on the add-in "4 mode Resizer" by PeYTaN (you can find it on http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=46731&lngWId=1) which is based on the class ControlResizer by Edward Catchpole (you can find it on http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=46203&lngWId=1) The (GREAT!!) combined work of the two authors spared me *a lot* of coding time, still I had some complex forms on which i wanted to optimize the resizing to the last twip, and the available modes weren't always enough for me. So I ended up extending both the class and the add-in to support anchoring and resizing a control with regard to another control, not just to the form. I also added a small demo project that (I hope!) gives the idea of the various and complex arrangements you can achieve by combining the available modes; just resize the two example forms at will and see how the controls behave. These are the enhancements: 1. More freedom Someone commented on the original class that it had the flaw to reserve tag usage for itself, whereas the developer may want to use control tags for their own purposes. This version is tag-friendly: it doesn't replace the previously designed tag, it appends the designed tag after the resizing data and a custom separator. When the form is loaded and the class initialized, the resizing data are retrieved from the tags and stored in an internal array; the originally designed tags are then restored and no longer needed by the class, as the resizing code will work on the array. 2. More speed Cycling on the internal array, which only stores info for the controls that will be resized, is faster than cycling everytime on the whole array of form controls, in case at least some controls won't need resizing. Besides, the original class used to set the 4 properties (Left Top Width and Height) separately; this version calculates them all and touches the control only once, via the Move method. (A SetWindowPos API call might be even faster, in case you want to try it) 3. More options The new modes allow you to anchor a control to another, so that the gap between those controls stays constant, whereas it grows if both controls grow and move proportionally. A control can now be aligned to another control (Left, Right, Top and Bottom), stretched (Width, Height) to align its right or bottom edge to the latter, or stretched to the same size (Width, Height) of the latter. Relating a control to another requires that the latter has already been resized, but the modified class takes care of it by sorting the data after assigning a priority to each control, requiring no extra effort from the developer. Filling and sorting the array will marginally impact on the form startup time, but as said the runtime resizing tends to be faster. 4. More bugs? Most likely, as there's more code! (I had noticed no bugs in the previous version, just a lacking feature in handling arrays of controls, now properly dealt with) So if you find any, please inform me so that they can be fixed; even better if you send me a fixed version yourself ;)
I was inspired by Clint's vcTrayAlert Control at http://vbasic.iscool.net/ It was cool but he did not make the source code available. So I decided to write my very own control. Along the way I have added many cool features. I have used a gradient-drawing class that I found on PSC by Kath-Rock. I made a help file for my control and as you will easily figure out, I have invested alot of my spare time into this large project. It is made free but make sure to check out the license agreement and copyright info. All I'd like to ask you is your encouragement - IF you DO like my control. So I'll be waiting for your feedbacks and emails :) Oh, I'd like to ask you for one more thing. Help me debug this control, report any bugs you might find to me on my email addres. Thanx.

This is the simplest code ever for always on top, if you find anything simpler (which i doubt) let me know!
Add special effect to your form when it is showing and hiding! 6 types of effects can be applied. They are roll left to right, roll right to left, roll top to bottom, roll bottom to top, expand window outward and fade window. This program shows how to add these fancy effects. Make sure you have Windows 2000 and later or Windows 98 and later running before running this program. The program is well commented and a tutorial is included. Your comments and votes is the way you repay me for my work.
This "thing" takes advantage of a thoughtless mistake on microsoft's part. This prog can stay on top of anything, even the task manager! PLEASE VOTE! -Note: I used code from Jan Alexanders Transparent form to achieve the flashing effect

I'm not sure sure if it's just my computer but, for some reason, my VB programs never stay on top of other windows all the time when I use the SetWindowPos API. This program still uses the SetWindowPos API but I added some stuff to make it work properly.
get and change numlock ,capslock, scrllock and insert key state using system tray (Add and remove) using self start with windows using transparent layer using read and write registry get screen workarea with SystemParametersInfo and adjust form left and top with a Taskbar Visual Moving a Window Without a Titlebar always Keeping a Window On Top
Through the use of API, it can be done, command button's caption can be aligned to the top, and a frame's caption can be centered. Later versions of VB give you that option standard, but not the 6.0 So if you ever wanted to know how its done, here-it-is.
Finally the help file is included in the .ZIP file! Thanx to Amanda Miller, the WebMaster. Being inspired by Clint's vcTrayAlert Control at http://vcreations.net/product.asp?pid=34, I decided to write my very own control. This one has much more cababilities, and some advanced features for Win2000 or later: like the Transparency property and the fading animation. It is still very easy to use: check out the DEMO. It is also very versatile!: check out the Screen Shot ;). I have used a great gradient-drawing class that I found on PSC by Kath-Rock. I have invested alot of my spare time in this large project. It is made free but make sure to check out the license agreement and copyright info. All I'd like to ask you is your encouragement - IF you DO like my control or NOT then please VOTE. I'll be waiting for your feedbacks and emails. And, If you ever find a bug, email me about it.

This is an explorer property page shell extension which will allow you to edit mp3 tag properties. By adding an empty dialog and plopping a vb form on top you can handle all the programming in vb instead of c++. There is a .dll required that is available at http://www.programmersheaven.com/search/download.asp?FileID=38704. The propext.dll is essential since you cannot call a function pointer in vb.(that I'm aware of)It allows the adding of the empty dialog, on top of which the vb form is placed. This can of course be applied to any file extension. You can make your own custom property page. I have found many instances where an external .dll written in c++ can extend vb into an extremely robust language. Too bad they aren't allowed to be submitted for security reasons.
Tetris '2005 is an exciting action game. Throughout the game, bricks of various types fall from the top to the bottom of the playing area. When the bricks form a solid row of blocks across the playing area, that row vanishes. Because this is the only way to remove blocks, you should try to form solid rows whenever possible. The game ends when the pieces stack up to the top of the playing area. You can manipulate a brick only when it is falling. Falling pieces may be rotated, moved horizontally, or dropped to the bottom of the playing area. This nice and small game offers High score lists, Preview Screen, Position Pointer and more. It has no multimedia but intended to bring a taste of fun to a small break on a long, hard working day. However, if you would like to support my work, please rate this article and visit one of my other programs. Check them out!

This is an update to code I posted Yesterday. The sole purpose of this code is to allow you to use a free ISP, without the wasted desktop\browser space of ad banners. In the previous app the banner was hidden using Win API Functions. This worked except the banner ad people have hard coded there Banner Apps to stay on top at all times. Hence, the code to hide the banner had to be executed over and over again causing the "Hider" App to canstantly execute code. THis Method Minimizes the banner... THe banner will still be on top, but it will only be a title bar that you can position in the "White SPace" of the Browser toolbar. No adds will be displayed. YOu will not even know it's there.
It automatically makes your form on top until they close or end the program and it is all API free!
Puts Your form on top.
Sitting at home on my computer with my back to the TV ... I thought it would be nice to be able to sort of keep up on what's happening on TV, so I whipped up this little monitor mirror. It stays on top and allows me to see the reflection of the TV. It's just a black form. Good lesson on keeping a form on top and retaining settings using the registry.
Prevent unauthorized viewing of website javascript and style sheet files. Simply rename all your style and javascript files to the .asp extension. Then include the validate_view.asp file at the top of each file. Open the validate_view.asp file and change the top the constants to those required. Then finally call the procedure name "validate_view" with the current files content type as the parameter.
Post-it is a desktop notepad the designed to look like the famous stickys. It is drag-drop, transparent, and the choice of always on top (.exe provided is on top). Good for whatever ya want i guess..
This code keeps a form on top of all other windows.
