This is an enhancement of Dr. C's code submitted today. His code dealt with EASY TO IMPLETEMENT API Based AutoCompletion Class which features an auto-dropdown option for VB Combo Boxes. He should get full credit for the class developed. It is very good work. Further enhancements made to his fine work includes (1) a simple database which loads the combo box with values, (2) a primary module containing useful stuff, (3) Added a Gotfocus and LostFocus to Combo box to manipulate the displayed value, (4) added ENTER key acceptance capability. His original code can be found at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=34618&lngWId=1. Users can type in some existing value or create a new value "on-the-fly" into the Combobox. Try it and see. I felt many of you would like the changes so I am posting them. Let me know what you think.

Hey everyone. A great TIP here! I don't know if this has been brought up before (did a search but found nothing) it may even be in VB books - but some of you may not know this... Did you know that (in the code) you can right-mouse click over a particular procedure, function, word, method, event, any declared variable, etc... Then choosing "DEFINITION" from the menu selection will jump you to where it was declared or the code for it?! See screen shot for example of this. Then after you get there, right-mouse click again and choose LAST POSITION to jump back where you came from? How useful is this? Coulden't remember how something was declared? Need to check the code real quick for a function? You have several modules/forms/classes in your code?, etc... Give it a try (similar to highlighting something and pressing F1 for help) This may be a simple trick and many of you may already know this. But for those of you that don't, please VOTE. I think it's worth it. Comments are welcome.

As a computer programmer, you may be developing one or more projects to run on certain computers on a network environment. Once the initial installation takes place for each computer, you may have a need to change the code for a program, recompile, and create a new EXE file,and copy the EXE file to each computer needing this program update on your network. NOTE: To use this demo, you must have System Admin rights or try typing in a UNC path and access their computer remotely. (Example Shown Right) The file must be closed before you can copy it to networked computers. You could, of course, Use Start / Run / and type in the UNC path and dump the file to each computer (like illustrated above) - then copy the file over. There may even be other methods to do this, but the method I developed allows you to send the EXE file (or other file(s) if necessary), to each computer on the network (only those running your software) through its computer identification name. This program was written about 1 ½ years ago – found partial code that was missing – so I’m uploading this for you’ll. Did some simple modifications to it before uploading it to PSC. Forms are quite simple and it uses DAO (I know it’s old) but still works very well. See for yourself – then change to ADO if you wish. This YourApp.vbp and TransferApp.vbp does not require any outside OCX or DLL. You do have to reference the Microsoft Scripting Runtime. Please read the README.doc Word Document for proper preparation, setup, and execution of this demo. If you don't have MS WORD, you can download the WORD viewer from Microsoft's web site. If you like this program, please feel free to vote - please leave suggestions and/or comments. Thanks
