**** UPDATED to include an on-board MP3 Player! Now you simply double-click on the song in the search window, and Disk Pro will prompt you to insert the proper CD, and then play the song! **** Disk Pro is an MP3 Indexing program. If you have lots of CD's that contain MP3 files, and you need a quick way to see what CD has what song, this program is a great start! It allows you to rapidly index CD's (insert one by one), storing all file and volume information, ID tag info, and misc info like bit rate, length, etc, into a data file. You can then easily perform searches on one or more fields to locate the song(s) at a later time. I also added some extra GUI features, such as a translucent, detachable, dockable toolbar, html template reports, sortable listview, configuration page, and 99% persistent interface (it remembers everything so next time you start app, it will be the way you left it). Keywords used for searches are also maintained. The Export-To-HTML uses template files, so you can easily modify the files to format the output the way you choose. Again, with the update, you can now also PLAY the MP3 files right from within Disk Pro. It should be a good start for a great indexing program. If you like it, votes are always appreciated.

This is an update to a previous submission, with many more features (thanks to your feedback). here goes: Disk Pro is an MP3 Indexing program. If you have lots of CD's that contain MP3 files, and you need a quick way to see what CD has what song, this program is a great start! It allows you to rapidly index CD's (insert one by one), storing all file and volume information, ID tag info, and misc info like bit rate, length, etc, into a data file. You can then easily perform searches on one or more fields to locate the song(s) at a later time. Also, you can build custom lists by performing multiple searches, then manually adding/deleting entires. I also added some extra GUI features, such as: Time intensive tasks all use a progress bar with a Cancel function, inclusion of a translucent, detachable, dockable toolbar, html template reports (for easy modification), sortable listview with sizable columns that remember their size next time you do a search, interface configuration page, and 99% persistent interface (it remembers everything so next time you start app, it will be the way you left it). Keywords used for searches are also maintained. The Export-To-HTML uses template files, so you can easily modify the files to format the HTML output the way you choose. Also, you can PLAY the MP3 files right from within Disk Pro (simply right-click on a song and select PLAY. Disk Pro will prompt you for the CD). This is an update to last months post, with many added functions, and alot of bug fixes and interface enhancements. It should be a good start for a great indexing program.

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.

This is a rich-text-box with a built-in line-number panel on the left. Typical use would be for a script editor language IDE. I Couldn't find a decent one on here that did this, so I spent some time doing it myself, and passing it on for you to use (and improve on, of course). It is a pretty basic control, but I did make into a control so you can just pop it onto a form and go (of course, source code for control is included). You can control the Line Number panel width, backcolor and forecolor, along with all textbox stuff (uses RTF in case you want to use my syntax code colorizer submission). The Line number panel automatically adjusts its font to be the same name/size/etc., as the text box so that they line up properly. Hope you find it helpful - if so, votes are always appreciated (kind of makes me feel like it was time well spent).

This projects shows how to convert an RTF box into a dynamic Syntax Colorizer (like the VB IDE colorizes what you type). It uses a text file to build its list of keywords (are you writing your own scripting language?), which you can easily modify by adding your own list of words/commands. Included is a small subset of the VB language syntax to show an example. Routines are very fast, and account for quotes, and comments. Routine also sets keywords to proper case ("print" to "Print" or "backcolor" to "BackColor". Hope this is helpful to some of you out there - I have commented it heavily to help you if you need to make modifications, or you can simply drop the "Colorizer" module into your own projects and use as is (simply pass your forms RTF box and the colors of your IDE you want).

This project shows how you can add an Intellisense List (like the one in VB where you type an object name, then a "DOT", and then a list pops up -- that's the Intellisense List). Designed to allow you to enter in YOUR SCRIPTING LANGUAGE COMMANDS AND OBJECTS quickly and easily (using an external text file). All efforts were made to make this act exactly as the one in VB does. Press TAB or ENTER to select an item in the list. Clicking TAB immediately automatically selects the first item in the list. You can begin typing the property name and the "closest match" will be highlighted as you type. Backspacing on your typed entry also does the same. Multiple "DOTS" (eg: me.text1.font.) works. Insertion of "DOT" characters in the middle of a string works. Location of intellisense box goes to where it can fit in view (bottom right, bottom left, top right, top left) depending on where your current cursor location is. This project Took me some time troubleshooting, so I hope some of you out there can use this. UPDATED ON AUGUST 9th! Fixed a few unhandled errors, added more comments to help you see what is happening, Wrapped Intellisense core functions into subs for easier include in your projcets, and added the ability for different styles of the Intellisense box (Office XP stlye, VB6 style, and a hybrid style) as many of you have requested.
