minimize, maximize, close and -my- button

[bzemer]

hi,
how can i put my own button next to minimize, maximize and close?

and question 2:
can i use the '?' button for other use (instead of help)?

thanks..

nullus, when I add this code and click on the button, nothing happens:

Public Sub cmdInTitlebar_Click()
    MsgBox "now"
    Me.WindowState = 1 'minimizes the form
End Sub

Looks good though.

Really? Hmm....it works fine for me...

I think it might be one of the API calls that doesn't like NT. Let me guess, you've got win9x?

does visual basic run different on nt as it does to 9x and millenium

[nullus]

Yeah, I had a feeling you might be using something other than 9x. I'm using win98

manic_gofar, it means that some API calls are available across all versions of windows and some are not. For example new win32 api functions added with windows 2000 such as animate window, will only work on win 2000.

Quite often there are differences between win9x and NT.

Does anyone know a site details of the Windows 2k specific API calls.
