- PMCTLPNL
-
- This program is written in Visual Basic for DOS
- The source code and forms are supplied as well as an executable version
-
- It allows updates to ControlPanel properties and saves the selections
- in a file called CTRLPANL.OPT
-
- The original idea for this program came from the book
-
- VISUAL BASIC for MS-DOS Workshop
- by John Clark Craig
- published by Microsoft Press
-
- The rest of the ideas are from Robert A. Blaney

-
- This program is being termed freeware for the following reasons:
-
- 1. I learned some things about VB DOS
-
- 2. I want you to be able to use this and
- experiment with it
-
- 3. It will help pay back the work of others
-
- To use it in your own code you only need to load each form and
- write a routine to access the PMCTLPNL routines.
-
- You may also want to replicate or move the code in the form load
- process of PMCTLPNL into your first FORM_LOAD procedure in
- your application. This will then set your control panel
- variables at start up.
-
- A good idea is to put a menu entry under something like Utilities
- for color select. Then the user can select colors
- to their own liking.
