A few VB editor-shortcut keys that make life worthwhile.

This tip is on the off chance you want to break with GUI standards and show a disabled text box (or other control) without the typical grayed out "disabled" look.

This code demonstrates the technique of writing direct to graphical memory in a Kaleidescope. The technique basically maps an array to a bitmap address. Changes to the array then affect the bitmap. I first saw this method used by Simon Price.

Wintasks is a program capable of doing hundreds of Windows tasks. Wintasks can: Shut down Windows, restart windows, log off Windows, control open programs, "refresh windows," empty recycling bin, set screen resolution, disable/enable; taskbar, ALT-CTRL-DEL, desktop icons, screen saver. Also Wintasks can send email, recieve email, send "fakemail" (mail under any address), connect/disconnect to internet, open anything in control panel, copy/rename/run files, find: time, date, cpu usage, and length in Windows, secure the computer with a password you can set, find the ***'s in password boxes, enumerate windows, convert keys to ASCII decimal, find files, open Winfiles, Minimize all windows, create Veda designs, open the CD-Rom drive, and auto mouse move. The program can be FORCED on top and stay above screensavers! Wintasks can do all this and MUCH more, within a small form that can be minimized to the system tray! Wintasks has the power to control running applications and to kill viruses! (This is an extremely updated version of the previous Wintasks I submitted) Includes TONS of API and is a great reference if you don't know a certain API calI. Please Vote if you like it!

This code is something that isn't often seen done in VB. Even for C, documentation is poor, examples are shoddy and unintelligible, and everything is HARD. But here it is. This is known in shell extension terms as a context menu handler. When explorer goes to create a right-click menu, it calls this dll because of entries in the registry, and the dll can add entries to the menu, and do some neat stuff, just like winzip. This is a fairly simple version of shell extensions, but by following the same principles, it can be grown upon for all the menu handlers, copy hook handlers, drag drop handlers, etc, and even into the shell namespace extensions. Very rare, and spectacular, you want to download this code! (And vote, too!)

This code will create the code for a java script mouse over. You put in the starting image, mouse over image, click image, loading text, and link url and it generates all the code for you. All you have to do is cut and past to your web site.

AutoSave is a program that automatically saves the file you are working on in the program you specify as often as you want. It is a very useful program especially if you work in a program that has crashing tendecies, and you are worried that your work might be lost. AutoSave demonstrates use of Registry, Menu and Window API calls, and is commented pretty fully. ***Autosave v1.2 is now out!*** Bugs found in the first version have been fixed, so it now works well in both VB5 and VB6! Check it out at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/showcode.asp?txtCodeId=12825 and be sure to vote!

A great Volume Control code. Very easy and very reliable.

This is an example that shows you how to append unlimited items to the system menu! Reach where you couldn't reach before...

One of the most common obstacle for a beginner VB programmer is how to suppress the textbox right-click menu. This example shows you how with heavily commented code.

This is a simple class module that wraps the Always On Top function to make your forms on top of others.

Using Class Modules to shuffle the deck of cards 10 times to insure they are thoroughly shuffled this shuffle example is great for those looking to make a card game as a test project, code submittal for here or other various code submittal areas... You can use these modules freely all i am asking is for 2 seconds of your time to just simply scroll down once you are ready to download this example and simply click on that cute little vote button. This example holds so many oppurtunities for you guys to explore.

This sample code shows the way to show the printer properties window, That is the dialog box to set the optios of a printer, using API and not the VB Common Dialog. Very Fast and easy to use Uses the OpenPrinter,PrinterProperties and ClosePrinter API functions

It is a program like GO!zilla. Drag from IE into the listbox and save the location. Right click on the listbox to activate the menu. Downloads HTTP and FTP with progress indicators. Calculates the bytes per second like Gozilla. Saves the download list like GO!ZILLA .Only tested with proxy, but modem should be fine. Please open the Group and not just the Project. Oh yes...it is skinned.

This small application will close any open windows, yet leave other processes and system tray processes running. It's just a small token of my appreciation to other authors that have submitted code to help other people - Including me. Enjoy and please vote for my hard work!

Updated from IniViewer. This code opens ini files and places its contents in a tree node. You can edit, delete, or insert new Sections/Keys/Values with this. I will make changes to this if it is needed. Please let me know what you think of it. I would also appreciate any votes you could give me. * One thing to note is that this editor will only make changes to Sections/Keys/Values. If there are any comments in the ini file, they will be lost on saving. I might add some code to look for comments or any other bogus stuff in the file later on. Let me know if you think it is needed.
