BOb Thanks for the better google search! Found a nice bit oc code from VB-Helper.com that uses the Set/GetDIBits API function.

Hi I have been looking all day for a way to get a bitmap from the clipboard into a matrix or array. I have seen it done in C and .Net but I can't see anyone who's done it in VB6. I am guessing VB6 doesn't have access to MemoryStream functions like .Net? I have been writing a program in VB6 to...

Hi johnwm Thanks for your post, thats exactly what I need!!

hi BobRodes thanks for your post. Im writing a vb6 application with alot of variables that the user needs to change. I would like to create a form with a listbox just like the properties listbox found in visual studio that lists all number of settings on one side, that the user can edit on the...

Hi It would be very handy if I could recreate the Properties list box you find in Visual Studio, ie Clearly a listbox of sorts but you are able to enter new values, select from drop down menus, select colours etc. I've searched for examples or where to start with combining multiple types with...

Not connecting to a DB, but do have connections to a third party communication DLL and I am using Windows VidCap32 to capture images from a camera. The previous exe build (just before xmas) works and this was before the Camera facility was added. I'm don't have too much experience with frame...

Hey I've opened an exe using Shell ("C:\MyPath\MyServer.EXE") The problem I have is that it has a 'Start in server mode' button. Now I think I should be able to use something like Shell ("C:\MyPath\MyServer.EXE RUN") or something similar, but I've searched the net and can't find an...

Can you go a level higher? Nothing put priority to one of my projects than the intrest of a director who asks my boss, who in turn supports me 100%. With out intrest 'from above' Im in more or less the same situation as you (fighting for attention and approvals).

Thanks again dhookom, it was a friday and was seriously bugging me.

Cheers dhookom, but Im not too hot on running SQLs yet, is there no way to use =Dlookups?

Hi I hope someone can quickly put me out of my misery. I have a table ORDERS that records CompanyID as a number field. I would like to find out the company (CompanyID) that has placed the most orders, but Im not too sure about how to combine the DMax(DCount()) aggregates. Example CompanyID...
