Flat Command Buttons
i am trying to get the flat command buttons happening but when i change the appearence property to flat, it is still the same... i am after the buttons that rises when mouse is over it, alot like toolbar buttons for win98+
the only thing i can think of is to draw a square shape, same size and colour as the command button, make the button not visible at start, and when the mouse is over the square shape, it hides itself, and unhides the command button over the same area as the shape.. this works fine, but i must implement this to every single button!!!

Combobox, Apearance FLAT = NOT FLAT?
Hello group,
I prefer to use 'flat' textboxes (appearance = 0-Flat) and stuff. Why is it that a combox with the property appearance set to 0-flat isn't flat but 3d?
Can it be fixed?
Are there any other options?

Option Buttons And Command Buttons On A Different Form
Hi all!
my problem is, im making a quiz setter/taker.
i have 1 form to set the questions and 1 form to take the test.
on the set form, i have 5 text boxes, 1 for the question and 4 for 4 possible answers. next to the 4 text boxes i have an option button to select for which the correct answer is.
then i press the save button and go to the test form.
there i have 1 text box and 4 command buttons. the 4 answers appear in the command buttons to click. which ever button is clicked, the button changes yellow to indicate the buttons has been selected.
then i press a submit button to reveal the correct answer.
what i want to do it make the option i selected, if the command button chosen is wrong or right then it will change either red or green.
this will be a small peice of code probably but ive been trying all night and cant figure it out

Hello, does anybody have an example of declaration and use of the GDI+ flat API function GdipLoadImageFromFile()?
It's simple, whatever I pass in the first parameter, the function keeps returning 3 ("Out of Memory").

Flat Appearance
Is there any Functions or API is available for Flat setting ?
In my application I want to set the control's appearance to Flat. Currently all controls are showing as 3D. By clicking one button, all controls should be changed to Flat.
Earlier I had try APIs, but no luck. Then I was trying to make flat by looping (Taking all controls and making flat in a loop), But it is too slow and it is taking some time
Is there any short method ?
Thanks in Advance

Flat Scroll Bar
I need a flat scroll bar for my .ocx but I want it to respond to the mouse wheel when it has the focus like a normal scroll bar would
I have 3 ideas on this and help with any or an alternative suggestion would be appreciated (I can't use SetCapture, and would prefer not to hook)
1)make flat scrollbar respond to mouse wheel
2)make the normal scrollbar's backcolor grey to look like a flat scroll bar
3) use a flat scrollbar with a hidden normal scrollbar that has the focus, and which move in unison (problem here is it only works when you can see the normal scrollbar)

Flat Controls
Guys and Gals,
I have been handed a requirement to convert and existing Access database system to a visual basic project. I have spec'd the project and only have one problem remaining. The user interface. The client wants the vb app to look exactly like the existing database. The only problem I am having is using flat controls. I need to create a series of flat controls (combo, textbox and listbox) and be able to change the border colours of each one. I have managed to create activex "copies" of each one but am having trouble adding a border to ecah that I can change the colour of. Does anybody have any ideas on how I can do this?
Flat Button
hi, does anyone know which component to create flatbutton, and what it is for actually? do we need to download anything in order for it to be able to viewed in normal visual basic?

GDI+ Flat API Calls In VB.net
I have been looking high and low for any sort of information on using the GDI+ flat api calls using .net. Specifically GdipLoadImageFromFile, but for that matter I cannot even get GdiplusStartup to return successfully.
Heres a little context for the use. This is for a thumbnail generator, the problem is that when you call the functions in the wrapper classes it automatically does something called "image data validation". This is terribly slow, and apparently is recognized by Microsoft as a problem which they do have a patch for. Unfortunatly, they are keeping a death grip on it until the next framework service pack. Here is a link to the KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;831419
with the fix installed, you can load images from disk 97% faster. Thats a pretty serious increase. There is a gentleman who has coded a workaround in the meantime, it appears to be in C#. I am wholly unfamilier with C# and have been trying for quite a while now to convert this code to VB. Here is the link to his workaround:
http://weblogs.asp.net/justin_rogers...31/105296.aspx
I have seen posts by OnError written a little more then a year ago that accomplished something similar to this in VB6, I have studied his code as well. but am still unable to make it work correctly.
Here is what I have so far, perhaps it's something simple that I am overlooking.
Code:
Declare Function GdiplusStartup Lib "gdiplus.dll" (ByVal token As Long, ByRef inputbuf As GdiplusStartupInput, ByVal outputbuf As Long) As Long
Declare Sub GdiplusShutdown Lib "gdiplus.dll" Alias "GdiplusShutdown" (ByVal gToken As Long)
Declare Function GdipLoadImageFromFile Lib "gdiplus.dll" Alias "GdipLoadImageFromFile" (ByRef FilenameW As String, ByRef gImage As Long) As Long
Structure GdiplusStartupInput
Dim GdiplusVersion As Long
Dim DebugEventCallback As Long
Dim SuppressBackgroundThread As Long
Dim SuppressExternalCodecs As Long
End Structure
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim tStartup As GdiplusStartupInput
Dim token As Long
tStartup.GdiplusVersion = 1
Dim ret As Long
ret = GdiplusStartup(token, tStartup, 0)
Dim hnd As Long
ret = GdipLoadImageFromFile(Application.StartupPath + " est.jpg", hnd)
Dim ptr As New IntPtr(hnd)
Dim bmp As Bitmap = Image.FromHbitmap(ptr)
End Sub
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you

VB6 && Flat Files
Which Connection String do I use for Flat Text Files? I am trying to write a program that will examine the files for accuracy before they are sent to the actual databases. I do not want them to be able to write, just read. If there are errors, they need to go back to the originating system and make the corrections.

ADO And Flat Files
Using Ado (Access 2000) and vb6 I have tables that are updated using flat files (comma delimited) by deleting the data and replacing it with the data in the flat file. I also have some tables that I want to back up and restore using a flat file.
I read Q262537 on using Jet to do this. This method is a lot faster but, it seems to be ignoring the first record.
On my backup, I create a flat file. My table has 4 records in it. The flat file has 4 lines of data in it, but when I read the file using jet it has only 3 - ignoring the first record.
I seem to remember reading that access uses the first line to set up the type but I couldn't find it again - also unnecessary in my case.
Is everyone setting up a header record to get around this problem?
