Hello VB'ers,
I have spent a frustrating few hours searching for a particular control. I
am going to continue searching, but thought it might be more productive to

I'm using a ROT13 derivative that somebody kindly sent me to use in my VB
app, but I don't know how to make the gobble-de-gook that it creates
URL-friendly.

this?

Could you please help me with this because I am going round the bend.

  I need a dialog box like the ones showed in win XP for view all folders.
 Does anyone knows how to use the SysTreeView32 in my App?

Does anyone know how to create virtual serial port in VB6?  I found some

forms are stored in it. My question is how can I now use the key to determine
if that form has already been loaded? I can loop ...

I didn't find an active classification for this question, it seems very old
topic, but I hope someone might be interested to help with it.
I am trying to use the PaintPicture with the printer object to print several
images in one page, and several text lines as well, all is ...

I would like know... are the folks at MSDN professional programmers who thus
know how to organize, explain and present MSDN library topics in useful easy
to find and understand format or are they just technical writers who do not
understand the real programming world and thus can't ...
