Windows XP is coming. With that, everyone will be moving to the NT platform. This article goes through some tips to prepare your programs for compatibility with the NT platform.
Did you know that VB 5/6 applications will not render their controls with the new visual themes under Windows XP? Obviously, this is not good. This is the solution to this problem. This creates a REAL themed button under Windows XP by calling the Theme APIs, all wrapped up into an easy to use control. All you have to do is drop this control in your forms in place of the regular command button. Plus, as an added bonus, this control is completely backwards compatible! If the OS that your program is running on does not support Themes (or if they are disabled), this control simply displays the standard command button, without any extra work by you. This will give your applications a truely professional touch!
Here's a silly little app that will tell you how many days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds that Windows has been running.
Simple. This locks a Windows NT-based computer in one line of code. This would be the same as the user pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL and pressing "Lock Computer". NOTE: You must have WinNT 5.0 or later. (that's 2000 or XP)
Have you ever wanted to make use of the animations Windows uses when you minimize and maximize open windows? Now you can, and it's eaiser than you think! Use this simple module to make all of your forms open and close with animations. Works on any Win32 system. The animation is drawn with the caption of the opening window in it, and uses your system colors (and gradients, if your system supports them) to create the titlebar animations. Enjoy! I don't care about the votes.
