    Event When Items Added To ListView

    Hi, I'm creating (or trying to) a control based on the ListView. For this to work, I need to call a procedure as soon as an Item is added to the ListView. Before I started I stupidly assumed they'd be an 'OnItemAdded' event - but I'll be buggered if I can find it. Can any of you lovely...

    Sending MIME multipart/alternate email

    I'm attempting to write a bulk email function that sends a MIME mulipart/alternate email so that it displays a text or html message depending on the recipient's client (which is unknown).

    Slow Query - Date in text format

    OK. I have a third party database that I need to query. There is 1 million records in the table, each with a date field in text format (I can't change this). I want to return all fields after a certain date but this is painfully horribly nastily slow and keeps beating me with the time-out stick...

    Syntax Highlighting in RichTextBox

    Can anyone give me any ideas on how to highlight keywords in a RichTextBox? I am writing a SQL query tool, and I would like to highlight all recognised SQL keywords in the RichTextBox as the user types. My first attempts haven't been turning out too well: It's just far too slow and variable...

    Combo box in List View?

    Is it possible to have a combo box in a list view? I have a list view containing name, datatype and length of fields of an SQL table. I want a dropdown to change the value of the datatype in the list view. I'm buggered if I know how. HF

    SQL Development Kit

    I am working on a freeware application which is basically a version of the SQL Enterprise Manager (without the bugs)specifically put together for programmers.

    List Views and Pop up Menus

    I've got a listview in icon view containing a bunch of nice little icons. What I want to do is pop up a little menu when the user clicks the right mouse button on the listview. In VB this was simply a matter of a few clicks in the menu editor and 1 command to pop the menu up. So why does it...

    I've got a pop-up menu popping up when you right click on a listview. It's all working fine, apart from the stupid menu doesn't disappear when I want it to. I would like it to close when the mouse moves off of it. Any ideas on the best way to approach this? HF

    I'm working on a "splitter bar" for Access 2000. "Splitter bar" - open up Explorer and resize the Folders bar - see how the folders bar is resized and the rest of the room is taken up by the files? That's what it is. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll post it...

    Access 2000 - Listviews acting strangely

    I have an Access 2000 form that contians listviews. They were all working fine until recently (no code has changed - and the data looks fine). Now, even when empty (even if renamed so they are not referenced in the code at all) they contain headers and rows. Even if I delete the related data...

    Creating a DSN

    Very soon we will roll out Windows 2000, and users will still want to use their Access 2 systems. This is all very well, but when any of our Access 2 systems are run for the first time they write the relevant DSN details to the ODBC.ini. Our users will not be set up as Administrators of their...
