Who knows what the actual why is. You have to be doing something pretty unusual for version lie to be desirable; but then, why should *everyone* have to worry about it instead of just the people who...

I think there's an option to clean up previous installations... "Clean system" on the extras tab.

Unlike twinBASIC, VB6 isn't smart enough to tell YourProject.RECT and oleexp.RECT are the same.
I don't know why you *must* be able to use an identical RECT that's declared within your project,...

If you want to compare memory, use... CompareMemory.
#If VBA7 Then
Public Declare PtrSafe Function CompareMemory Lib "ntdll" Alias "RtlCompareMemory" (Source1 As Any, Source2 As Any, ByVal Length...

The stdole.GUID type uses types unsupported by VB6. Shockingly, there's a reason for decisions like substituting a VB-compatible equivalent named 'UUID' instead.
Public Declare Function...
-
And 'As Any' wouldn't let you pass a string containing a GUID to IsEqualGUID, which requires an actual GUID/UUID/IID type.
The IsEqualGUID in oleexp is the API declare; you can't put macros in...
-
What's wrong with IsEqualGUID?
There's a macro version but it's also an actual export, from ole32. Your definition is fine as-is.

Truth Social loses money, has very little revenue, and no viable path to profit. Why else would major financial interests want it at such exorbitant valuations other than to get lots of money to...

Unfortunately there's no oleexp for 64bit VBA, which is what Angel is using I suspect.
And making one here I suspect would be extremely difficult, as this is a force-included interface by midl,...

@Elroy, did you also get a Surface tablet over an Android or iPad option just so you could run your VB6 stuff on it? :D
I finally got to play with code for touch UIs, autorotation, and radios.
-
There's something to be said for learning while doing things that interest you... it's a lot more practical in VB6 than less beginner-friendly languages. I never formally sat down and learned the...

It's a vehicle for foreign investors, in this case China, to funnel Trump money. They're 'investing' not in the money pit of Truth Social, but in the favors they'll get if he wins the election.

Well I've explained this before but will again... I don't feel Carles is approaching things honestly. His public posts are extremely misleading about the progress of RB, and you need to pay money to...

This was just to test the new polling feature, not a serious poll lol,
But yes, tell us, are you most excited about RADBasic, or my next project? :D
You're always welcome to make threads in...

That looks like the options for Visual C++ 6.0.

If you can't even translate it I don't know what you're going to do with it.

All those widgets you make would be perfect for controls :D

Today I finally finished a project I started to make a Control Panel Applet.
Since tB supports x64 and standard DLLs natively I did it in that, but it's entirely possible to do this in VB6 if you...

I've recently created a UserControl/ActiveX control that wraps INamespaceTreeExplorer in twinBASIC; I wanted to try out some recent improvements in tB's ability to create ocxs.

Just use the regular method.

Yup this is my new standard now... I keep version info around and call ReadWindowsVersion on startup.

I updated the post with an even easier method. I realized you don't even need the declares.

Seems even weirder to me that the address is the same on both 32 and 64bit, but it works. The address is documented; there's Microsoft-written articles talking about it and the struct has an MSDN...

I'm not seeing any issue... I compiled an exe in tB in LAA and it worked fine; were you seeing a problem with however you get VB6 to compile with that?
-
The simplest version APIs all lie unless you have a manifest. If you want to be sure you get the real version no matter what, there's various more complicated techniques. The one I had been using...

If you're talking about the VS6Installer tool on nuke.vbcorner.net, the author unfortunately passed away and the payments can no longer be made. Due to this situation I've uploaded a copy at...

Where does it say otherwise? The documentation is perfectly clear: "This interface is implemented only by the common file dialog boxes. "
That means IFileDialog.

Depends on the type of button. Classic Win32 button, no problem. I started my VB life making AOL pr0ggi3s that click buttons and controlled other UI elements. But now? Lots of **** using that...

I'm usually pretty good at finding errors but I couldn't find that one. Only results I could get were for E_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND, which has an identical value, and conveys the same idea.

Indeed. You have to subclass the form and listen for WM_COMMAND or WM_MENUCOMMAND messages for when the user selects a menu item. And also, WM_MENUSELECT if you want to know when an item is...

Explorer windows aren't common dialogs.

Can you clarify whether you're talking about declared functions within the static lib, or if you were trying to use it on undeclared static lib functions? The latter wouldn't be expected to work.

Not sure how that could possibly be answered without knowing the RFID reader and how it communicates with the PC. I could tell you how to find out which one is installed, but beyond that, it could...

MDI forms is probably the biggest thing missing; I know a lot of enterprise apps use those. That's slated to be done over the next month though; it's next up after some commissioned work to get a...

For large line of business apps I'd suggest waiting until the v1.0 stable release, which should hopefully be late summer/fall of this year. There's still some key missing features, especially that...

So I just had a funny conversation with ChatGPT where I convinced it to do something it wouldn't do...

It's compiled into your project so I believe you can just use AddressOf; I tried it and it returned a valid-looking value but I didn't try actually using it yet.

You're welcome, glad it works for you :)
