Hello.
I have raw bitmap data and a PCX file (I also know the width and height of the raw data image).

First of all, thanks for the reply.

Hello.
I'm making a program which connects to a MySQL dtabase, reads some tables, and populates comboboxes. The user fills a form with the comboboxes and textboxes and I'm ready to update the...

I was thinking of that but I was hoping to take advantage of the Listview functions. Thank you anyway, I will probably use text boxes and combo boxes.

The user will enter some records, I don't think more than 40... The columns could be around 10. I also want some to be non-editable by the user.
At the end, the program will connect to a server and...

Hello.
I want to write a program that will have a grid like Listview but I want the user to type in the boxes in a way similar to Excel. Also, I want some cells to limit the user to a list, like a...

I'm afraid you can't do anything.
Older versions of Outlook didn't have that feature but Microsoft added it for extra security.
I strongly recommend that you use vbSendMail.dll (see posts above).

This could be done not just in VB but even in the Windows "Run..." command line.
If I write "explorer" there, then the Windows explorer starts, but how can I select if the folders window shows or...

I have written a program that uses some dos commands or external programs to recieve, convert and decrypt or encrypt files. The (dos) program that encrypts or decrypts these files, uses a special...

I can't believe that :-(
There must be a way...

I could test it by using vbSendMail.dll.
For each possible combination, I could try to connect to the mail server. When it connects, it means that...

There has to be a way...
It must be stored somewhere, even if it is encrypted.
For example, I have noticed that Outlook has a setting to use the Windows Username and Password.

Hello.
I want to use vbSendMail.dll to send emails, but the mail server requires the Windows Username and Password.
I could have two text boxes in the settings panel in my program, but I really...

Thank you Zeb, that's exactly what I wanted!
In fact, I had used ChDrive and ChDir in the past, but I don't have the help installed, so I couldn't find them now. There weren't any posts about this...

Hello.
I want to set (not retrieve) the active windows directory through VB.
Something like the "cd" dos command (but including the drive).

My problem is that I want to use external programs...

Thanks for answering zak2zak :-)
I wasn't clear though...
I don't want to populate my listview, I have already done this.
I want to delete a record from an access database.
The name of the table...

Hello.
My program reads records from an mdb database and populates a listview. I want to be able to delete a record from the database, the one which is selected in the listview.
The database has a...

I tried it, the window now appears below the taskbar.
It leaves some space though but that's ok, I have to subtract 30.
Perfect, thanks!

I tested the code, it works, but there is something weird...

For example, if the taskbar is on the top of the screen and has its normal size, then (ABD.rc.Bottom - ABD.rc.Top) gives 32 but if I...

Well, it looks it's what I want :-)
Even though I don't have time to test it now, I thank you very much.

Hello.
I like having the windows taskbar on the top of my screen, so sometimes new windows that appear on the top are covered by it, I can't move them and it gets annoying.

I have made a program...

Thanks WizBang :-)

Hello.
I'm making a frontend program that uses emulators to play games.
I have to use one that doesn't accept long filenames though...
How can I convert the whole path of a file to the same path...

I have thought of that, WizBang, but I'm afraid I have to do it for everything that's on my form... and unfortunatelly there are many things there :-P
As for the ToolTipText delay, I never said I...

If it's true that Microsoft itself hasn't overcome this problem, then I should just forget it.
As for the ToolTipText part, it seems you didn't understand what I wanted...
I want to know when the...
