- Virtual text browser for VB.
-
- Source code for 0.9 beta.
-
- This is an attempt to get around the 64K (actually about 50K) limit of
- the VB text box control without 3rd pary DLLs. Solution is view only.
- Please feel free to use. I am calling this a beta though.
- Please see README.TXT if you would like to help! I will repost when
- finalized. Uses THREED.VBX, CMDIALOG.VBX and VBRUN300.DLL which are
- not supplied.
-
- First, thanks to all the VB guru's whose books, articles, online help,
- etc. have made VB and this project an enjoyable experience.
-
- Virtual text browser uses arrays of text boxes to display information on
- the screen.
-
- (Please excuse some of my coding, I used to be a COBOL programmer (:-).
-
- Could use help with the following (besides, any bugs):
-
- 1. I would like to add cut/paste but enabling the text box adds a lot
- of "what-ifs". But any suggestions would be appreciated.
-
- 2. When going from one "virtual" text box to another there is a certain
- amount of blinking. It isn't too bad on my Pentium (:-) though may be
- on a slower machine.
-
- 3. In the Search routine I would like to highlight the found search
- text, and maybe even scroll horizontally to the text. I just could not
- figure out a way to do this.
-
- 4. HEX mode is slowwww. Any suggestions?
