VB Forum / General / April 2008

Does anyone know of a standard dialog or otherwise that I can use in
VB6 (e.g. via a Windows API call) to select a Windows user account at
the domain level.
e.g. DOMAIN1\SmithJ

PS Yeah I know this is off topic but I'm sure many here will be interested
even if you say you're not :-)

I dug up a very old program I wrote back in 1998. The main form is a
MDIform.
I'd like to put a graphic image smack in the center of the MDI form's
background, my company logo, before I release this program again.

I have a tabbed control on a form that is populated from a database.  I have
a request to change the application to include a navigation button for
customers that have multiple records.
I have created navigation buttons for use in forms, however, I have never

I remember on my last computer I use to come to this forum and it looked
totally different.  Its not that this one is new but I seem to remember that
I could view all the posts using Outlook Express.  Can someone help me with
the proper set up to do that.  I really do not like ...

really worth bringing each and every customer up to date.
However, I notice that VB6SP6 updates severale OCX's that we use. For

I was having a play (VB6) and discovered a little whatyamacallit.
On a form Put a command button (command1) and a menu item called 'mnuFile'
with any caption you like then paste the code below. What should happen when

The deployment/packaging program that comes with VB6 is a pain in the neck
for me. It just seems like I have to do a lot of learning to understand what
all it wants from me.
So instead, years ago I started using a packaging program called Inno Setup.

Does anybody have a sample of how to create an ASP page (sorry, I don't
know anything about ASP yet) that will accept input from my VB6 app and
then calculate a license code which is retrieved from my app?

I am concerned about other people being able to read the comments that are
in our vp projects after we compile to an exe.
When we compile to exe is it possible to read the comments in a text or
other editor?  I looked at some exes and it looked like some text stuff wa

usually a Windows application dramatically reduces its memory usage when set
to minimized window state. (You can easily test this with Windows Task
Manager; minimize e.g. Internet Explorer...).
Now, my VB6-written application unfortunately lost this capability somewhen

If you have, like me, searched in vain for VB5/6 source code to
convert MIDI Type 1 files to Type 0, then take a look at:
