Does TB support adding other controls like Microsoft Windows Common Controls? I need to use a listview.

Sure. You need to add a reference to the 'Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0' COM reference (Project menu > References). Once you've done that and close & saved the Settings, you should find that the common controls are available to use in the form designer.
Due to a bug, some control members are not currently showing in intellisense, so typing 'ListView1.' for example won't show you the ListItems member, though it is actually available, so the full 'ListView1.ListItems.Add' works. This intellisense bug will be fixed later today.

Re: TwinBasic
I just imported a small project, (one form, one module, two classes) I'd made to that does some CRUD operations on a server database via ODBC.
I really didn't expect it to work without some tweaking (it being labelled experimental) but it did, perfectly!
VB7 has arrived!

Re: TwinBasic
So I've got a 3rd party OCX image control. I added a reference to it. Now... it doesn't show up in the tool box... how do I use it? How do I add it to a form? Cool project.
Edit:
I added a picture control and a command button from the existing toolbox to a form then added this code to the button:
Code:
Private Sub Command_Click() Handles Command.Click
Picture1.Picture = LoadPicture ("author.jpg")
End Sub
I put the file author.jpg in the same folder as the twinbasic exe and ran and clicked... got an error saying "file not found".
I'm thinking this project is amazing but very preliminary. Or I'm doing something wrong. Still a cool project.

For the ActiveX control, first make sure you're working with a project that is saved to disk. Add the reference to the type library in the COM References list (don't use the Import From File feature here). Save the Settings file. Compiler should briefly restart and any ActiveX components should then be available in the form designer for you to use.
For the picture, at the moment you need to prefix Set...
Code:
Set Picture1.Picture = LoadPicture("author.jpg")
I note that Set is not required in VB6 here, so I will get that fixed. If you're still struggling with it, check the value of CurDir to see if the path is as you expect. With the `Set` prefix, it works fine here.

Yes, DarkBob, the project is 'very preliminary' as in it is being developed now... That is what alpha/beta software means. So, if you want to drive away using a car that is still being designed and built, obviously only has three wheels, no chairs and only a stub with a spanner on it where the steering wheel should be - then you have another think coming and I'm suggesting it's just around the corner.

Re: TwinBasic
Suggestion: on the blog in github, drop in a small image on occasion, if appropriate and if possible. Sometimes an associated picture speaks louder than just the text.

Currently github is helping by redirecting all links to WaynePhillipsEA/twinbasic repo to twinbasic/twinbasic repo but this might change (fail) at some point in time.
