Assuming you're working with VB .NET, the following link might help you: http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/vsnetstylemenusvb.asp[^]

Found this via Google: http://www.vbcity.com/forums/topic.asp?tid=23857[^] I'm sorry I don't have VS6 installed atm, so I wasn't able to check that sample out - hope it'll be useful though :)

Especially for games like Far Cry, I'd recommend at least a 5600 Ultra, better 5700 Ultra to get good frame rates. A Radeon 9600 XT would be an alternative.

B of course! It's clearly more readable.

:doh:

Well, at the moment, I'm listening to the following albums: Ill Niño[^] - Confession Korn[^] - Take a look in the mirror P.O.D[^] - Payable on death

I'm learning French, and I really like it! :) But tell me more about this special programming school!

Well, I started in 2002, when I was 12 years old, with Liberty Basic...:-O Then came VB6, and now I'm using VB.NET 2003. In, between, I tried a little C++, but at the moment, on my computer, only vc6 works, vc.net doesn't at all. :( Er...one question: Why is everyone learning LATIN???

I'm pleased that you like it. I'll provide some updates in future, just check: www.madcode.net/download/quickaccess from time to time. [This site isn't available at the moment, but it will be soon!]

I've just finished work at Quick Access.NET version 1.0! I added some new features: - a 'notify icon' that is displayed in the systray. Double-click it and Quick Access will open. You can also right-click the icon to bring up a context menu. - AutoComplete function for the ComboBox - Support for WinXP look-and-feel You can download the MSI package here: www.madcode.net/download/quickaccess/quickaccess_setup.msi[^] If you want something changed or if I shall send you the source code via email, please contact me: webmaster@madcode.net

To find out how to get the windows directory, click on the link below: http://www.vbexplorer.com/VBExplorer/tips/src29.asp[^] I found this article a few days ago, I also needed to get this directory. But I don't know about the ICQ directory. :confused:

The about form looks really good! :-D Well, I've still got another question: May I translate this app into German and offer the executable (or a setup program) on my web site? Possibly I'll also make a .NET version. This would be really cool! :cool:

Thanks for this offer, but I don't know which sites to include at the moment. Please post a link to the source code .zip file, so I can modify the program on my own.

Cool... :-D The German name of the directory is: C:\Programme\Internet Explorer . Will it be possible to download the final version from your website?

I don't really know why , but I finally got it to work the first time I press enter. This is what I changed: Dim GoogleCheck GoogleCheck = Left(go, 7) If GoogleCheck = "Google:" Then [...] I don't know how to get the name of the program files directory. This would be MUCH easier when using VB.NET!

One important thing that I forgot in the message above: Make sure the form's KeyPreview property is set to true!

The following code should work: Private Sub Form_KeyDown(Keycode As Integer, _ Shift As Integer) If Keycode = vbKeyReturn Then cboChoose.SelLength = 7 cmdGo_Click End If End Sub But there's still another problem: Your application only works with English Windows versions. I use Windows XP Home German, and the program crashed because the name of the 'Program Files' directory is translated into the OS' language. :(

I think I've got the solution for your problem: 'Variables Dim go As String Dim totallength As Integer 'the total length _ 'of the google:blah expression Dim searchlength As Integer 'the length of the expression the user _ 'wants to search for (e.g. blah) go = cboChoose.Text totallength = Len(go) searchlength = totallength - 7 go = Right(go, searchlength) 'now the string variable go contains the expression 'the user wants to search for This code might not be perfect, but it works! :)
