I want to "install" a bunch of programs on a CD and be able to run it on multiple machines. Some of them are stand-alone, no problem there. But many others install their own DLL's. I need a few things: 1)A reliable, hopefully easy way to determine which DLL's a program needs (I do have...

Anyone know how to use the Ambient property? I used the AmbientChanged event to set Timer.Enabled = Not Ambient.UIDead, but the event didn't trigger when it seemed it should; during the Initialize event, the Ambient property's client site is unavailable; you can't use the Ambient property in in...

I have a UserControl that uses a timer. My UserControl works great, but when I'm in the design environment, the timer still runs which slows down everything even more. I was hoping there was a way to disable the timer when in the design environment and re-enable it when running the program?

Does anyone know how to use the RegConnectRegistry API to connect to a registry on the network?

I have a borderless form with PictureBoxes positioned to look like a border. Is there a way to display the appropriate resizing cursor without having to worry about setting it back myself? I've tried: SendMessage Me.hWnd, WM_NCMOUSEMOVE, HTBORDER, 0& including variations of it using HTLEFT...

It has two TreeViews on the left and a TextBox on the right. It fills the upper TreeView with the associated files, name of the project as the main heading,all of the forms under \Forms, etc. If you click on the name of a form, module, usercontrol, etc, the lower TreeView fills with the objects...

I figured out how to resize the form with APIs, but now I wonder if anyone knows how, using APIs, to change the cursor to the appropriate resize cursor without having to reset it myself.

I currently have a label that the user can click on and resize it that way, but I was wondering if there was a way to do it using APIs like SendMessage (that's how I do the moving of the form). The reason I wanted to know is because my own computer is kinda slow and when I resize it using my...

I know how to move a borderless form, but how do I go about resizing a borderless form if, let's say, I have a border of picture boxes around the edge of my form?

Chiph Thanks for the info. The reason I wanted to know what they were is because I created a Visual Basic Project Viewer that open the project, along with all the files contained in that project and will return basically everything about the project and its files. Everything from code to...

Tryp- I appreciate the tip but actually, VB stores all info about, for example, a form inside of the .frm file. It includes all object and their properties and all the code in that form. The .frx file seems to be non-text information. When I've opened other forms (in WordPad), there is a...

Can anyone tell me what the .frx, .vbw, .ctx, etc files created by VB when saving a project, form, usercontrol, etc are used for, what info they contain and how to read that info?

I am using VB5 and I'm trying to figure out how to find the syntax of DLL functions, i.e. its arglist. Thanks
