Forms_Jet	Routines for Microsoft Access forms using Jet (for MDB/ACCDB, not ADP) using VBA.
SubForms	General routines for Microsoft Access subforms (Jet and ADP) in Access VBA. These functions will also work with normal forms, however, we are showing how to do additional things like: - Subclassing a subform in order to discern when an event on a subform fires. The example code here is all that is necessary for this since we do not need to create an additional class to accomplish this task. - Prevent adding records to a subform if it has met a maximum number of records with the AllowDisallowAdditionsToForm and GetRecordCount functions.

Access: Macros and Modules Access Macros and modules
Macros	Retrieving Microsoft Access macro names and running them in Access VBA.
Modules	Compiling, opening, retrieving, replacing, saving, and deleting Microsoft Access modules using Access VBA.

Access: Objects Access Objects
CurrentProject	Get, set, and create Microsoft Access properties for the CurrentProject (Jet or ADP database) in VBA. This differs from the Jet/DAO databases properties.
DataOperations	Perform data operations through DAO in VBA and VB6. Although queries should be considered the primary mechanism for working with data in Access, there are many places where complex needs eliminate queries as an option.
ManagingObjects	Delete, duplicate, rename, and export Microsoft Access objects in Jet (ACCDB/MDB) and ADP databases in Access VBA.
MSysObjectsInfo	Retrieve Access object information from the MSysObjects table using VBA and VB6.

Access Databases: Database Microsoft Access Jet databases (ACCDB and MDB database formats) and their objects using ADO and DAO, plus workgroup and password security using VBA and VB6.
ADOConnJet (class)	Class to support client/server operations using ADO in VBA and VB6. This class supports client/server operations using Microsoft's ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) technology. When using Visual Basic to deploy data-oriented local or client/server applications, you have a variety of development choices. You can use DAO and Jet, DAO and ODBC Direct, RDO and the Remote Data Control, or program directly against the ODBC API. This class exposes functionality to use ADO against Microsoft Jet data sources using the native Jet OLE DB driver. For information on the other choices, see the other classes in the Database category.
ADOConnJetODBC (class)	Class to support client/server operations using the ADO feature in VBA and VB6. This class sets up an ADO connection object for use with a Microsoft Jet database. It uses the Jet ODBC driver rather than the Jet OLE DB driver.
JetDatabase (class)	Using DAO with Microsoft Access Jet database objects for VBA and VB6. Microsoft Jet contains a versatile Database object that represents an open database. The term "database" is a broad term that can represent any one of the following: - A Jet or Access Database (.mdb, .mda, .accdb, .accda). - A Jet workgroup information file (.mda, .mdw). - An ODBC database, represented by a DSN. - A file system directory, such as a directory of xBASE or Paradox files. This class works with DAO/Jet objects at the database level. The class itself maps on top of a Jet/Access database and provides methods and properties for working with the objects contained in that database.
JetDatabase	Creating and setting primary Access database characteristics in VBA and VB6.
JetDatabaseSecure32	Modifying Access database settings under workgroup security using JRO and 32 bit versions of VBA and VB6. This allows Microsoft Access to compact a database using different workgroup security than the one used to open Access. Note that this code is not supported in the 64-bit version of Access 2010 or 2013 due to the use of the 32 bit library MSJRO.DLL. JRO has been deprecated after MDAC 2.7. JRO is not available on the 64-bit Windows operating system, and is not supported in the Microsoft Access 2007-2013 file format (*.accdb).
JetEngine (class)	Manage Access database characteristics such as passwords, encryption, compact, workspaces and tuning through DAO for VBA and VB6. The Microsoft Jet Database engine is exposed through the Data Access Objects (DAO) interface as the DBEngine object. Through this object, you can set various engine-wide parameters, and work with Jet workspace and database objects. This class puts a layer of high-level functionality on the Jet Engine. You can use the properties and methods in the class to perform engine-level operations, such as database maintenance, setting performance tuning options, retrieving low-level statistics, and setting workgroup options for secured databases.
JetEngine	Manage Access database characteristics such as passwords, encryption, compact, workspaces and tuning through DAO in VBA and VB6. The Microsoft Jet Database engine is exposed through the Data Access Objects (DAO) interface as the DBEngine object.
JetObjectInfo	Detailed information on individual Jet/Access objects using the Data Access Objects (DAO) object model in VBA and VB6.
JetSecurity	Manage Jet security users and groups in a specified database in VBA and VB6. Each of the procedures in this module require that you pass a workgroup name to identify the workgroup you want to work with. By default, Visual Basic doesn't open a workgroup information file (.MDA, .MDW) unless you specify the SystemDB property of the DAO DBEngine object. When you specify a value for this property, the default DAO Workspace object, also known as Workspaces(0) is mapped to the workgroup information file you specify. In such a case, specifying a blank value for the strWorkgroup parameter of the procedures in this module effectively uses whatever workgroup information file you are currently using.

Access Databases: Fields View, retrieve, add, edit and delete data in Attachment, Hyperlink, and Multivalue field types in Microsoft Access ACCDB database tables using DAO with VBA and VB6.
AttachmentFields	Add, edit, delete and retrieve files from Attachment fields by updating records in Access ACCDB database tables using DAO with VBA and VB6.
HyperlinkFields	Detect and parse values in hyperlink fields from records in Access ACCDB database tables using DAO with VBA and VB6.
MultiValueFields	Add, edit, delete and retrieve values from MultiValue fields by updating records in Access ACCDB database tables using DAO with VBA and VB6.

Snippet DAOParityDDLEngine	Comparison of common data access activities against Jet object structures using the DAO and ADO methods in VBA and VB6. While most Access and VB6 projects that use Jet use the DAO object model, ADO is also possible. This module shows common DAO tasks and then shows the equivalent ADO code.
Snippet DAOParitySecurity	Comparison of common data access activities against Jet security using the DAO and ADO methods in VBA and VB6. While most Access and VB6 projects that use Jet use the DAO object model, ADO is also possible. This module shows common DAO tasks and then shows the equivalent ADO code.
Snippet Queries	Example of browsing query objects as recordsets in a Jet/Access database using the Data Access Objects (DAO) object model in VBA and VB6.

Access Databases: Table and Records Manage tables and data records from Microsoft Access databases for local and linked tables using ADO and DAO with VB6 and VBA. ADP support provided through ADO code.
ADOJetADOX	Code that shows how to work with Jet/Access objects and information using the ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) object model in VBA and VB6.
ADOJetData	Example code to work with table and query data in a Jet/Access database using the ActiveX Data Object (ADO) object model in VBA and VB6.
CreateTableDAO (class)	Create a table in a Microsoft Access Jet database using VBA with DAO (not for creating tables in ADPs). Specify the fields and their data types, create primary and secondary indexes, set SubDataSheetName to None, allow text fields to accept zero length strings, set the CheckBox display for Yes/No fields, etc.
JetData (class)	Properties and methods for working with data stored in Jet/Access databases using DAO for VBA and VB6. When you use VB6 to develop database applications, you have several choices for local database access: 1. Use the Data Control to access Jet/Access databases. 2. Write DAO code to work against Jet/Access databases. 3. Use DAO/Jet with linked tables for heterogeneous data access to disparate data sources such as FoxPro, xBASE and Excel. The functionality in this class enhances method #2, the use of DAO and Jet in program code to work with data.
JetLinkedTables (class)	A class to create and refresh Microsoft Jet linked tables using DAO in VBA and VB6. This class makes it easy to work with multiple linked table objects without having to open and close the database each time.
JetLinkedTables	From Microsoft Access, work with Microsoft Jet linked tables in the current database to link to external data sources using DAO in VBA. This module includes procedures for working with linked (attached) tables. Microsoft Jet provides a powerful mechanism for accessing external data sources. This technique allows you to create a permanent link to an external database or file without importing a copy of the data which may become outdated. Linked tables are useful because they make the external data source appear as a standard table in the database. This makes the management of data across disparate sources easy, and since links cache structure information about the external data source, accessing the data is usually faster than opening the external data source each time. You can even run (heterogeneous) queries among different data sources. A variety of data sources are supported: Microsoft Access/Jet databases, dBASE DBF files, Paradox db files, FoxPro DBF files, Excel spreadsheets, HTML files, Text Files, Exchange data, ODBC data sources, SharePoint lists.
JetRecordset (class)	Working with Microsoft Jet recordsets with DAO in VBA and VB6. With this class you can open and close recordsets on a variety of data sources, and get advanced information about records and fields.
JetTableInfo	Determine Microsoft Access/Jet database object information using DAO in VBA and VB6.
QueriesADO	Create, execute, and browse Microsoft Access queries in the current project using ADO for MDB, ACCDB and ADP formats in Access VBA.

RecordsetDAO	Use DAO to create recordsets for Microsoft Access database objects from VBA or VB6.
TableCopyDAO	Copy table structures (including complex fields) between tables using DAO in VBA and VB6.
TableCopyDataADO	Copy records (excluding complex fields) using ADO in VBA and VB6.
TableCopyDataDAO	Copy records (including complex fields) between tables using DAO in VBA and VB6.
TableModifyDAO	Modify Microsoft Access tables to add, delete and rename fields; set starting number of autonumber fields; set table property for performance; and set field properties using VBA and VB6.

ActiveX Controls: Common Controls Windows Common Controls for list view and tree view
ListView	Routines to extend the functionality of the VB6 ListView control. The majority of the ListView enhancements are provided in the CListViewEnh class. This module contains a standalone procedure to load a DAO recordset into a ListView control. Note that this code is not supported in the 64-bit version of Access 2010 or 2013 due to the use of the Common Controls of MSComCtl32.ocx.
ListViewEnh (class)	Work with the enhanced features of the MS ListView common control in VB6 and 32 bit VBA. This class acts as a wrapper for the common dialog ListView control. It provides several useful enhancements such as full-row select and sorting when the user clicks the column header when the ListView control is in report view. It allows you to specify additional styles such as check boxes and gridlines, as well as functions to set and get the value of the check boxes. Note that you must insert a ListView control onto a form in order to create a reference to the common controls library before the class will compile. Also note that this code is not supported in the 64-bit version of Access 2010 or 2013 due to the use of the Common Controls of MSComCtl32.ocx.
TreeView	Loading the TreeView Windows Common control with data and searching in VB6 and 32-bit VBA. The TreeView control is one of the components in the comctl32.ocx common controls custom control. It presents an expandable/collapsible hierarchical view of data. The routines in this module are used to load the treeview from arrays and recordsets, find strings, and collapse and expand the nodes of the TreeView. Note that this code is not supported in the 64-bit version of Access 2010 or 2013 due to the use of the Common Controls of MSComCtl32.ocx.

ActiveX Controls: Multimedia Multimedia ActiveX Controls
WindowsMediaPlayer	Routines for working with the Windows Media Player control in VBA and VB6.

Error Handling: VBA Error Handling Routines for Microsoft Access and General VBA
ErrorHandlerAccess	Global error handler for Microsoft Access VBA. Added to every procedure, these routines will trap, document, email, and gracefully exit your application when unexpected errors occur. A global error handler will help you improve the quality of your application by providing developers with the information necessary to diagnose problems and minimize the need for users to report crashes. The primary procedures for this module are CallStackAdd, CallStackRemove, and GlobalErrorHandler. For more information on error handling read our technical paper on Error Handling and Debugging Tips and Techniques for Microsoft Access, VBA, and VB6. See the declarations section for how to set the Total Visual SourceBook error handling options with this module. If line numbers are added to your VBA code, the error handler will document the line number where the crash occurs. Use the Code Delivery feature of Total Visual CodeTools to add line numbers to your code.
ErrorHandlerVBA (class)	Global Error Handler for 32 and 64 bit VBA. This class provides a standardized error handling mechanism to trap errors, track the location and type of the errors, and to allow the programmer to take appropriate response. This version is VBA compatible--it contains no VB6 specific code. If you want the VB6 version, use the CErrorHandlerVB6 class.

Error Handling: Visual Basic 6 Error Handling Routines for Visual Basic 6 (VB6)
ErrorHandlerVB6 (class)	Class that provides a standardized error handling mechanism to trap errors, track the location and type of the errors, and to allow the programmer to take appropriate response in VB6.

Excel: Automation Excel automation
Excel (class)	Create and modify Microsoft Excel spreadsheets (workbooks), worksheets, data ranges, cells, formats, margins, data from Access, spell checking, and PivotTables through VBA and VB6 automation. Microsoft Excel provides an automation server component, which allows most of the functionality in Excel to be called from an external program (e.g. Microsoft Access VBA, VB6, etc.). Note that Excel refers to a spreadsheet as a Workbook and the individual tabs in a workbook as Worksheets.
ExcelExport	Basic data routines to export data from Microsoft Access to an Excel spreadsheet from a table, query, or SQL statement using DAO and ADO from VBA or VB6.

Excel: Examples Examples of code running within Excel
Snippet AutoFilter	Working with Excel AutoFilter objects in VBA and VB6. Excel allows you to filter cell data using the Filter, AutoFilter menu item.

This module contains example code to show you how to programmatically work with Query Table objects.

General VBA/VB6: Abstract Data Types Abstract Data Types such as bit arrays, dictionary, history lists, queues, and stacks
BitArray (class)	Class that implements a bit array in VBA and VB6. A bit array is an array of bit values, defined as 0 or 1. This class allocates 1 bit for each value you wish to store, resulting in significant memory savings. For example, suppose you wanted to maintain an array of 100 Boolean values. A single Boolean requires 2 bytes of memory, resulting in 200 bytes of memory. Using the bit-array technique available with this class, only 13 bytes of memory are consumed. A zero in the bit array would represent False, and a 1, True.
Dictionary (class)	This class uses the Dictionary object in VBA and VB6. Visual Basic 6 includes the Windows Scripting Host runtime component. This dynamic link library adds the ability to create and use Dictionary objects, which are similar to Collections, but are more powerful and can also be used in VBA. Unfortunately, several things are lacking in the Dictionary object, and the documentation provided with VB6 for this new object is thin at best. This class accomplishes three things: 1. Works around the bugs in the version of the Windows Scripting Runtime that ships with VB6. 2. Provides detailed examples of how to use the Dictionary object. 3. Provides additional functionality such as sorting the Dictionary.
HistoryList (class)	Class that implements a history list in VBA and VB6. If you have ever used a web browser, you are already familiar with the concept of a History List. When you press your browser's Back button, you return the previous page you viewed. Similarly, when you press the Next button, you move to the page after the one you are currently on. This class implements the History List mechanism as a set of two stacks: a forward stack and a backward stack. The forward stack contains items that have been popped off the history list, whereas the backward stack contains items that have been pushed onto the history list. By maintaining these two stacks, the class keeps a history list that allows you to move back and forth through a history of items.
Queue (class)	Class to implement a queue with a fixed or unlimited number of elements for VB6 and VBA. A queue is a restricted form of a list. All insertions occur at the end of the list, and all deletions at the front. An example of a queue is a waiting line where the last person is added to the rear of line and the first person served at the front. The queue data type defines three operations, EnQueue, DeQueue, and Front. - EnQueue places an item at the rear of the list. - DeQueue removes an item from the front of the list. - Front retrieves, but does not remove, an item from the front of the list. The queue is a FIFO, or First-In, First-Out, data type. This means that data enters at one end of the list, and exits from the other. This class is implemented using an array. When the array becomes full, the array index is reset to the beginning of the array and those elements are lost. The queue can also be unlimited by setting the WrapQueue property to False to preserve all items. This class supports object variables in addition to the standard text and numeric types.
Stack (class)	Class that implements a stack with VB6 and VBA. A stack is a restricted form of a list. All insertions and deletions occur at one end of the list. The stack data type defines three operations, Push, Pop, and Top. - Push places an item on the top of the list. - Pop removes an item from the top of the list. - Top retrieves, but does not remove, an item from the top of the list. The stack is a LIFO, or Last-In, First-Out, data type. This means that data enters and exits from the same end of the list. An example of a stack is a spring loaded plate dispenser in a cafeteria. The last plate placed in the dispenser is the first one removed. This class is implemented using an array based approach. When the array becomes full, the array is grown by the amount specified in the GrowBy property. This class supports object variables in addition to the standard text and numeric types.

General VBA/VB6: Application Techniques Common application development code for messages boxes, error handling, and shutting down windows
MessageBox	Routines for simplifying the use of the built-in MsgBox function in VBA and VB6. Use these rather than calling the MsgBox command directly.
MsgBox (class)	Wrapper class to simplify using Message Boxes in VBA and VB6. Coding MsgBox statement throughout your application can be a drudge. You have to set all the parameters for your message box and add a bunch of bits together to specify attributes. This class solves that problem by providing a very simple wrapper over the MsgBox command that exposes the message box as a set of properties and actions.
Shutdown (class)	Shutting down Windows with options to restart and logoff in VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls. This class allows you to shutdown Windows in one of four ways: Shutdown, Restart, Logoff, Shutdown with Power Off

General VBA/VB6: Data Integrity Data integrity verification using 16 and 32 bit CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check)
CRC16 (class)	Calculate the 16-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) of a file or string; can also be used for Checksum in VBA and VB6.
CRC32 (class)	Calculate the 32-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) of a file or string; can also be used for Checksum in VBA and VB6.

General VBA/VB6: Data Type and Unit Conversion Convert among different types of data such as bit operations, units of measure
AsciiBinaryHex	Convert ASCII characters, numbers, and hexadecimal values, encode URL characters and generate HTML colors using VBA and VB6.
BitOps	Routines for bitwise and unsigned data manipulation using VBA and VB6. Visual Basic does not provide any native methods for performing bitwise manipulation, nor does it provide unsigned data types. This module offers routines for bit shifting, bit setting, clearing bits, unsigned assignment operations, and extracting components of variables.
DataConversion	Convert data types within VBA and VB6.
EBCDIC	Convert between ASCII characters and Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code (EBCDIC) using VBA and VB6. EBCDIC is an 8-bit character encoding used mainly on IBM mainframe and IBM midrange computer operating systems. Visit Wikipedia for more information.
UnitConversion	Convert units of measurement such as degrees, distance, volume, and calendar dates in VBA and VB6.

DateTime See sample Date Time Age code	Date and time calculations for adding and subtracting dates, day of week or month, quarters, ISO week numbers, date/time parts, translating time to words, etc. using VBA and VB6. VBA and VB6 provides many useful functions such as DateAdd, DateDiff, DateSerial, etc. for dealing with date and time values.
MMTimer (class)	Simulate the action of a stop watch by using a high-resolution timer, in VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls. This class uses a high-resolution multi-media timer to track elapsed time. This class is useful for timing user operations, or for bench-marking your applications. Because it uses the Windows multimedia timer, it uses much higher resolution than the built-in VBA/VB6 Timer function.
Waiting	Wait for a period of time or until a particular time using VBA and VB6. Uses the Windows API Sleep command to avoid the DoEvents command in a loop that eats up all your CPUs. Includes support for 32 and 64 bit API calls. For more information, read our paper Avoid Using DoEvents to Wait.
Year2000	Year 2000 four digit year displays and the two digit pivot year for VB6 and VBA with support for 32 and 64 bit API calls.

General VBA/VB6: Encryption and Compression Encryption and compression operations
Encryption (class)	Encrypt and decrypt files and strings with Unicode support using XOR password encryption in VBA and VB6. The password is also encrypted as the string or file is processed, providing an additional level of security. For simple string encryption, consider using modEncryption instead.
Encryption	Encrypt and decrypt a Unicode or ASCII string using XOR password encryption in VBA and VB6. Similar to class CEncryption but simplified for function calls and no progress events.
Huffman (class)	Class that implements Huffman compression for files in VBA and VB6. Huffman compression uses character frequencies to compress data. Bit codes are assigned to each character, with shorter bitcodes for more common characters, and longer bitcodes for the less common characters.
LZ (class)	Class that implements Lempel-Ziv compression to compress files and strings in VBA and VB6. LZ compression, also known as sliding window compression, uses redundancy to compress data. As data is read, a dictionary of previous data is kept in memory. If a string of characters in the input data matches an entry in the dictionary, a code pointing to the dictionary entry is written to the output. If a match is not found in the dictionary the plain character is sent to the output.
RLE (class)	Class that implements run length encoding (RLE) to compress files and strings with VB6 and VBA. Run Length Encoding algorithms reduce strings of recurring characters to a single character, followed by a count of how many times the character occurred.
UUEncode (class)	Class that encodes and decodes files using UU Encoding with VB6 and VBA. UU Encoding is an algorithm for converting binary data to 6-bit ASCII. This is often needed to send binary files through internet mail gateways. UU Encoding is also commonly used in internet newsgroups for posting binary data. UU Encoding breaks a group of 3 eight bit characters (24 bits) into 4 six bit characters (also 24 bits) and then adds 32 (a space) to each six bit character. This maps it into a transmittable character set. These characters are: A-Z and 0-9 plus !"#$%&'() *+,-. /:;=? @[\]^_
ZipFile	Create compressed zip files, list the files in a zip file, and extract/unzip all files or individual files from zip files with file overwrite options using VB6 and VBA in 32 and 64-bit. Code references the Microsoft Shell Object without requiring it to be added as a library reference to your project.

WAVMID (class)	Play WAV and MIDI sound files and record WAV files using the MCI (media control interface) API. Includes support for VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls. This class allows you to interact with WAV or MIDI files without using the Microsoft Multimedia Control.

General VBA/VB6: References Managing Library References
References	Manage library references from VBA projects

General VBA/VB6: Searching and Sorting Searching in and sorting strings and arrays
BoyerMoore (class)	Class that implements Boyer-Moore string searching using VBA and VB6. The Boyer-Moore string-searching algorithm provides a highly optimized method for searching for a sub-string within a string. The Boyer-Moore algorithm takes advantage of its knowledge of the string being searched for. By doing this, it is possible to search a string without examining all the characters in the string.
FuzzyStringSearch (class)	Approximate text matching using fuzzy string searching in VBA and VB6.
MetaPhone (class)	Class that implements the metaphone string searching algorithm in VBA and VB6. The metaphone algorithm is similar to the Soundex algorithm but tends to group names together that are more closely related than Soundex does. However, metaphone also tends to produce more matches than Soundex. Similar to Soundex, the metaphone algorithm generates a key value for a word based on the consonants in that word. Metaphone uses more intelligent transformation rules, though, by examining groups of letters, or diphthongs.
Search	Binary and Linear Search routines and Soundex function in VBA and VB6.
Sort	Sort a array using a BubbleSort, QuickSort, or ShellSort algorithms in VBA and VB6.

You can use DAO and Jet, DAO and ODBC Direct, RDO and the Remote Data Control, or program directly against the API. This class exposes functionality to use DAO and Jet against ODBC data sources. For information on the other choices, see the other classes in the Database category. Many client server applications developed using Microsoft Access and Visual Basic use the DAO/Jet method for remote data access. Using Microsoft Jet, you make calls to the remote server using standard DAO procedures. Microsoft Jet manages the translation between the MDB file format objects and the server objects.
RDOConnection (class)	Class to support client/server operations using the Remote Data Access to set up an ODBC connection to a data source using VB6 and VBA. When using Visual Basic to deploy client/server applications, you have a variety of development choices. You can use DAO and Jet, DAO and ODBC Direct, RDO and the Remote Data Control, or program directly against the API. This class exposes functionality to use RDO against ODBC data sources. For information on the other choices, see the other classes in the Database category. This class was designed and tested against an ODBC connection using Microsoft SQL Server. The behavior with other servers may be slightly different. Note that this code is not supported in the 64-bit version of Access 2010 or 2013 due to the use of the 32 bit library MSRDO20.DLL. RDO was designed specifically to access remote ODBC relational data sources, and made it easier to use ODBC without complex application code. It was included with Microsoft Visual Basic versions 4, 5, and 6. RDO version 2.0 is the final version of this technology.
RDOData (class)	Class to support client/server operations using Microsoft's Remote Data Objects (RDO) technology with VB6 and VBA.

Visual Basic 6: Application Techniques VB6 Application Techniques
CommandArgs (class)	Class to parse information contained in a string into individual parts that can be tested in VBA and VB6.
Hourglass (class)	Wrapper class that implements an alternative way to show an hourglass in VB6. One of the problems that can arise when using an hourglass is not setting the cursor back to the default. This class avoids that problem by automatically setting the cursor back to the default when it terminates.
VB_Application	Routines for working with modules and the IDE in VB6. This includes handling chores such as ensuring that all forms in the application are closed before exiting, and testing the open status of forms in your and other applications.

Visual Basic 6: Controls Code for working with VB6 controls
ComboBox	Routines to extend the functionality of a standard Visual Basic 6 (VB6) ComboBox control. Some of these procedures expose features which are inherent in the Windows control, but are not exposed by VB6 (such as the ability to set the dropdown list width). Other procedures add entirely new functionality such as loading a DAO recordset into an unbound combo box.
DateTimePicker (class)	Implement the DateTime Picker Windows common control in VB6. This class implements routines for creating and manipulating the date time control from Internet Explorer's common control library.
IPAddressInput (class)	Class that implements the IP Address Input Windows common control in VB6.

Other procedures add entirely new functionality such as loading a DAO recordset into an unbound list box.
TextBox	Routines to extend the functionality of the standard Visual Basic 6 (VB6) TextBox control. Some of these procedures expose features which are inherent in the Windows control, but are not exposed by VB6 (such as the ability to set a bounding rectangle, or to force input to a certain case). Other procedures add entirely new functionality such as filtering keystrokes, or selecting text.
ToolBar	Routines for manipulating toolbars in VB6. Set the toolbar to the flat style, the same style as Visual Basic toolbars. This functionality is not built into the Windows Common Control ActiveX Control.
ValidateControl (class)	Class that provides the ability to perform validation on controls in their LostFocus events in VB6. Many people assume that it is easy to validate VB6 controls in the LostFocus event. Unfortunately, this can be quite a problem. Consider two text boxes: Text1 and Text2. Both have code in their LostFocus events to check for valid data enteries. When the user tabs out of Text1, the LostFocus event fires, so the programmer displays a message box and attempts to set the focus back onto Text1. However before going back to Text1, Text2 receives GotFocus and LostFocus events. Unless the value in Text2 is already correct, the validation code in Text2 fires, and the user is stuck in an endless loop. This class keeps a state variable to track whether a validation test is currently executing. If a validation routine for Text1 is being performed, Text2 will NOT fire its validation messages, even if the validation for Text2 fails.

Visual Basic 6: Forms Working with Forms in VB6
Captionless Window Mover (class)	Class that allows the user to move a form with the mouse, even if it doesn't have a caption in VB6. If you create a form without a caption bar, there is normally no way for the user to move it with a mouse. If you wish to allow the user to move the form with a mouse by dragging on any part of the form, not just the caption, you can use this class to handle the mouse-related events required to make this happen.
FormPos (class)	A form class to position a form on a screen in VB6. Easily save a form's position to the Windows registry, then restore it to its previously saved position. You may also center a form or move it to a specified location. This class uses the Windows registry location based on the specified RegistryPath and RootKey properties.
OpenForm (class)	Class that open Forms via a string reference in VB6. Visual Basic does not allow you to open and show a form based on a string or a variable containing the name of the form. This class lets you create a collection of the forms in your application, and then refer to them via strings or variables.
VB_Forms	Routines to enhance the behavior and features of forms in Visual Basic 6 (VB6)

Visual Basic 6: Graphics Creating graphics using the Windows API and native VB6 commands
ChangeRes (class)	Changing monitor screen resolutions in VB6. This class supports functionality to list all available video modes and switch to the desired mode. Since some mode changes require a shutdown of Windows, this is also supported.
Fractal	Routines for drawing fractals, including the Mandelbrot and Julia fractals in VB6.

GDIChord (class)	Class that draws a Chord, using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. A chord is a region bounded by the intersection of an ellipse and a line segment, called a "secant". Imagine an arc whose end-points are connected by a straight line.The routines in this class allow you to draw the chord by calling the Windows API Chord function.
GDIEllipse (class)	Class that draws an ellipse, using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. An ellipse is a circle or oval region whose center is located in the middle of an imaginary bounding rectangle. The routines in this class allow you to draw the ellipse by calling the Windows API Ellipse function.
GDIFloodFill (class)	Class that fills an area using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. The Windows API FloodFill function fills a region of the form or picture which is bounded by a solid line of pixels of the same color. It is often used to "color in" parts of the form. The routines in this class allow you to use the Windows API FloodFill function.
GDILine (class)	Class that draws a line, using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. A line is a series of pixels drawn between two points on the screen. The routines in this class allow you to draw the line by calling the Windows API LineTo and MoveToEx functions.
GDIPie (class)	Draw pie segments or a complete pie using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. A pie segment is a wedge bounded by the intersection of an ellipse and two radials. The ellipse is drawn within an imaginary bounding rectangle. This class uses the Windows API Pie function to draw the pie segments.
GDIPolygon (class)	Class that draws a polygon, using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. This class lets you draw an arbitrary polygon made up of a collection of straight-line segments, whose end-points are specified by the X and Y position in pixels. Specify the number of points in the polygon by setting the PointCount property. Then set the points between 1 and PointCount to valid X and Y point positions. The routines in this class allow you to draw the shape by calling the Windows API DrawPolygon function.
GDIRectangle (class)	Class that draws a rectangle, using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. A rectangle is a region whose location is determined by the Left, Top, Right and Bottom properties of this class. The angles of the corners of the rectangle are always drawn at 90 degrees. The routines in this class allow you to draw the rectangle by calling the Windows API Rectangle function.
GDIRoundRect (class)	Class that draws a rounded rectangle, using Windows API GDI calls in VB6. A rounded rectangle is a region whose location is determined by the Left, Top, Right and Bottom properties of this class. The angles of the corners of the rectangle are always drawn at 90 degrees. The corners of the rectangle are rounded off based on the value of the Height and Width properties. The routines in this class allow you to draw the rounded rectangle by calling the Windows API RoundRect function.
Graphics	Routines for creating graphics, primarily with Windows API calls in VB6. The majority of the procedures in this module enhance VB6's built-in graphics handling capabilities by allowing you to call routines in the Windows API to create graphical effects on your forms and other objects. Routines such as GradientFill, DrawControlEdge and RotateText actually place graphical objects on your forms. Other routines in this module perform numerical or calculated transformations only, or retrieve graphical information, such as the TranslateVBColor, GetRedValue and GetPixelColor functions. These functions do not produce any output, but they are useful helper functions for working with VB6 graphics.
ScreenCapture (class)	Screen capturing windows and forms to a picture with VB6.
SimulatedControls	Routines to draw simulated controls Visual Basic 6 (VB6). Windows contains a function "DrawFrameControl" to create an image of several standard Windows "widgets" -- check boxes, menu items, scroll bar controls and so forth. The functions in this module expose this function to your application. You might want to use these simulated controls for several reasons. Perhaps you are creating documentation of the appearance of a form, and you wish to create a graphic you can display or print. You might be creating lightweight "graphical" user controls and wanting to draw the appearance of the controls on your user control rather than using an actual control. Because the controls are drawn by Windows, their appearance depends on the users' Windows color and font preferences.

Visual Basic 6: Menus Visual Basic 6 Menu objects
Menus	Visual Basic 6 (VB6) menu routines
MRU (class)	Maintain a "Most Recently Used" menu items on a Visual Basic 6 (VB6) form with the use of Windows Registry entries.

Windows: Help Files Managing Help files (.HLP and .CHM formats) using VBA and VB6.
HelpHTML	Working with Windows HTML Help files (usually named .CHM or .HTML) in VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls. Microsoft Access forms have a HelpFile property that supports legacy .HLP format files, but not the newer .CHM help file format.
WinHelp (class)	Working with Windows Help (*.HLP) files in VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls. Code is included for opening, searching and closing help files. You can also open "Help on Help", contents pages, the help index, and run macros stored in help files. HLP format help files have been replaced by the more secure CHM help file format. Your Windows settings may prevent the ability to open an HLP file. Many of the Office and Visual Basic products provide tools for searching and displaying help files, but the VBA/VB6 solution is based on the use of the Common Dialog control. If your application is already using the Common Dialog control, it makes sense to use the Help facilities that VB offers. However, if you aren't using this control, and you need to implement support for Windows Help, this class is a better solution. Its size is obviously much smaller than the Common Dialog control, and its operation is very simple.

Windows: INI File Working with Initialization (*.INI) files using VBA and VB6.
INIFile	Windows Initialization (INI) files code in VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls. Initialization (INI) files are the primary mechanism that 16-bit Windows programs use to store setting information. Additionally, Windows itself stores its settings for the most part in various INI files in the Windows directory. Even in the 32-bit world, INI files are still used. This category contains procedures to read and write INI file values in both the built-in Windows files and your own custom INI files. Windows splits INI file access into two categories: 1. INI Operations: all operations are hardcoded to go to the WIN.INI file located in the Windows directory. 2. Private INI: all operations work on the INI file specified in the call. Use the "private" INI functions to work with all INI files other than WIN.INI. Interestingly, you can use the "private" INI functions on WIN.INI by specifying WIN.INI as the file to work with.

Windows: Registry Managing the Windows System Registry using VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64-bit Windows API calls
ProgramSettings (class)	Simplified registry access routines used for saving program settings in VB6 and VBA with 32 and 64 bit Windows API calls.
