    [RESOLVED] Manifesting my Project

    First, just to make it clear, I have never done any manifesting and I really don't know what the purpose is or how it works or even make a manifest file.

  7. Re: Custom Drawing of the ListView

    OK, it's time I put this project on the back shelf for now and start a new thread on manifesting. I'm playing around with your ManifestCreatorII so I'll see how far I get with that, :eek:
  8. Re: Custom Drawing of the ListView

    Yes, exactly as you posted it.




    I don't think it's a flaw in the OCX. I tried my project on another PC (Windows 8.1) and I get same results

  25. Re: Putting multiple lines of text in a Label's caption

    Nope. I don't see the difference between .WordWrap = True or False. When you put a very long text line in a caption it always breaks at the end of the label's width anyway so what does WordWrap do....
