If you don't have the source and the developer doesn't provide a 64bit build, you may need a replacement.

    My WinDevLib project helps a lot. The best approach is to simply comment out all your Windows API defs and let it take over. Yes there's some signature differences as every VB programmer has their own preferences, but I've added overloads and consistent standards to help with that. Mostly it's tedious; you'll then have to go around and change a bunch of Long to LongPtr to fit the new APIs, search for anywhere you might have used pointer math with a hard coded pointer size, etc.

    AIs can help, but they're not a replacement for actual programmers doing anything beyond boilerplate with numerous examples online. In particular for this, they tend to struggle with multiple indirection with pointers and catching the dozens of edge cases and gotchas; like it's never gotten it right when faced with a ByVal UDT and the trouble of handling that when VBx/tB can't (tB will at some point but not yet).
    Ok fafalon, thanks for the info, now I understand something about where this is going, I already saw how to use your WinDevLib, the AI ??helped me understand, and as my projects are quite simple, I only use VB6 for the graphic design of my programs, everything they really do, I do it with other better languages ????for it, like python, and all of them are 64 bits, and as I always use OCX that I have the Ctl - many thanks to the contributions of this forum -, it does not seem to me that it is going to be very complex for me to migrate to 64 bits, which for me is really the only reason, because with VB6 I have more than enough, but if Microsoft decides to put problems to the 32-bit programs, that is why I am interested in changing to TwinBasic ...

    Many Thanks for your info...!!!

    You can't use a 32bit OCX in 64bit mode. Maybe a few years down the road, but not now and not for tB v1.0. If you use a lot of OCXs, you're going to need 64bit versions. That means upgrading it yourself if it was made in VB6 and you have the source, because with the exception of controls by me and Krool (inc. a couple made by others I ported), nobody is making 64bit upgrades yet. Some commercial ocxs that were written in C++ have 64bit versions made originally for VBA64bit or .NET, and you can use those, but they're not the norm.

    And is it very complicated to transform the code from a VB6 CTL to one that works for 64-bit versions?

    Is there a 64-bit version of the LaVolpe AlphaImgControl?

    Although I don't actually use it, because I use a bas module:
    modGDIPlus

    Well, actually, I use very few OCXs made in VB6; most of them are the normal ones, which I imagine TwinBasic has their equivalents, like listbox, image, picturebox, Krool label - unicode -, and so on...

    Actually, in my latest program, I'm only using a modification of:
    vb6 malachi-chameleon-button-an-awesome-multi-style-button__1-28761-master

    A modification I made to make it Unicode, and I added a simple property, but one that I found aesthetically interesting, which is the ability to set the focusrect to any color...

    And use the unicode Krool controls...

    Pd: In my opinion, it's the eternally unfair game of big companies not to create language converters... Which wouldn't be very difficult for them...

    Re: TwinBasic

    The AlphaImgControl makes heavy use of a feature tB doesn't support just yet, placing UDTs inside Variant. It will support that soon. Besides that, it generally works-- I created a modified version that works, but haven't updated it to 64bit, figured I'd wait for proper Variant UDT support.

    *However* -- what are you using it for? tB supports PNGs and transparency natively.

    GDIPlus APIs work fine, I've used them quite a bit. Again with those since they're Windows APIs, they're 100% covered by WinDevLib for x64 support.

    tB has equivalents of all the basic controls (except OLE), and as previously mentioned there's a 64bit-compatible version of Krool's VBCCR and VBFlexGrid controls. You'll have to remove and re-add VBCCR/VBFlexGrid, but that's simple.

    "malachi-chameleon-button-an-awesome-multi-style-button__1-28761-master" -- this mostly works in 32bit with 0 modification... looks like there's a minor bug causing drawing issues. It took 5 minutes to convert to 64bit: I moved its existing APIs into a conditional compilation block so they'd be active in VB6 but not tB (keeps the same code compatible with both), added WinDevLib, replaced 2 enum values it had custom names for with the official ones, uncommented a custom constant it used that was a combination of real flags for DrawText, then the 64bit upgrade: 5 variables had to be changed from Long to LongPtr. And that did it-- it now works perfectly in 64bit. I've published this 64bit version on GitHub.

    Well, very good news for me fafalon, and thank you very much for the link to malachi-chameleon-button 64bits.

    I really don't know how to thank you for the time you've dedicated to me... Don't worry, soon I'll sign up for TwinBasic paying the fees I've seen, it's my way of being able to show my gratitude…

    In Spain there's a saying that goes "It's the mark of good breeding to be grateful"…

    And even though my program might seem to you, perhaps, like some strange thing, a hallucination, privately I'm going to give you proof with an experiment where you'll be able to verify live - and without requiring more effort than what you've already done giving me une of your answers to me - that there's something there!!! Plus I'll demonstrate that it's pure calculation, there's no inspiration or magic…

    And if they don't block this program, this program is a bomb, the first time in thousands of years that this has been demonstrated, and there will be no doubts, because we can believe that quantum mechanics is true, according to what they tell us, and everything according to what they tell us - well, those who are working on it may have already seen proof, but the rest of us, it's somewhat a vote of truthfulness, we haven't been able to verify it directly -…

    But the only thing in which human beings can have absolute certainty - unless one has Alzheimer's - is in our own past experience, THERE WE HAVE UNIQUE AND DIRECT KNOWLEDGE…

    My only concern is that I'm sure this is knowledge they keep for a select few, and for the common people, deluded ones and storytellers, and I don't know if they'll be pleased that it's demonstrated…

    And if they don't block it, it will yield a lot, because it's also every programmer's dream, it can't be pirated, as the program will give results, but how those results are reached it won't reveal, since how to reach those results will be done on a PC without internet connection, so since it's also about something personal, I don't even need it to have a password, and I can even give it with the source code of the results, not of how to reach them, and since I'll leave it at a very very very affordable price, it can yield a lot if it's not blocked…

    And if it goes well, I'll try to contribute as much as I can to your project, as I like it very much and I consider that you do great work for many programmers...

    Many thanks fafalon!!!

    A Billion Pardons, but I think it's important even if it's not programming, although it does deal with some programming...

    For those who say:

    Astrology? Ah! Run away!
    The AI Claude agrees with me. I FULLY GUARANTEE that this Chat with the AI Claude will leave you very intrigued!!!

    Link: AI Claude About Astrology - Fact Check

    And another exchange of ideas with AI Claude, who, since this AI can verify that what I say is true, provides very interesting data for anyone with a scientific and open mind:
    Link: AI_Claude_Parte_2_Sobre_Mundial - Fact Check

    It's in Spanish, but you can use Google Translate...

    And if anyone has any doubts about whether Claude has given the answers, ask him the same questions with the same information, and check that there's no cheating...

    Yes, I apologize, there is some topic for off topic???

    Well, sometimes I feel like presenting scientific arguments, and the confirmations made by an AI are worth taking into account, but soon my software will be released that will remove all doubts, because when a software correctly identifies key moments in people's past lives, like a CPU only knows how to do one thing: calculate, and calculation is pure mathematics, and mathematics is pure science, and our own experience is what we can most verify in this world...

    Well, finally, many people will wake up to the fact that, even though it sounds strange and beyond strange, and they have discredited it—this science is too powerful, it's like an intelligence service of the future, this isn't given to the common people—our existence is controlled by those boulders. It sounds really strange, but when you analyze it rationally and scientifically, all doubts will be removed, as strange as it may seem...

    And what could be more important than something that controls our own existence???

    Don't worry, that software will be released in the fall, unless they get rid of me so it doesn't get out. It's a closely guarded and deliberately discredited secret...

    I won't comment on the topic again here in VBForums... Best regards...

    Thanks for giving me the information about that subforum. I'll comment there always:

    Link:
    A brief explanation

    And you'll never again see comments on the subtopic that has nothing to do with programming... Just this one, this one, the last message about it...

    And I'm very interested in helping TwinBasic, and in making that project the best it can be...

    Thanks for the data DrBobby!!!

    Una pregunta, en TwinBasic teneis hecho un Label con Posibilidad HTML simple?

    Let's see, I'll soon release a super 64-bit compatible OCX button, which I already have ready, I need your help, it has everything, text with HTML:
    FontName
    Size
    Color
    Bold
    Italic
    Underline
    Strikethrough

    Icon in corners or wherever you want, image too, with alpha opacity, in short, rounded corners if you want, and so on...

    And I've been thinking about making another OCX that is compatible with 64-bits, but that is label-windowless, and with those HTML features, which I think is something that is sorely needed, like:

    Label1.Caption = "<font color='blue'>User:</font> <font color='orange'><b>James Reynolds</b></font> - <font color='blue'>State:</font> <font color='green'><b>Online</b></font>"
    But if you have already done it, I won't do it. It would be very easy for me to do it, since I already have all the functional code that I have implemented together with Claude IA in the button. I can do it in 1 or 2 days because it is almost copy/paste. But, as I said, if it has already been done, I won't do it...

    I also hope that before the end of the month, or in the first days of August, I'll have the "Option Explicit" converter ready and all variables declared as their true types, not as Variant or as Any, for VBP and VBG projects. The trick is to extract the information—it seems no one in 27 years thought of this, or so it seems—from the Object Browser—in VB6 by pressing F2—...

    Well, if a VBP implements Office functions or DLLs, or Excel, or whatever, a third-party DLL, the Object Browser includes them, and thus you can have complete information on any VBP, on all the reserved words—for example, many reserved words in Office APIs, if Office isn't included in the project, can be used as normal variables, but by extracting the information from the Object Browser, you'll always have all the reserved words that aren't variables, and thus it's completely flexible—...

    I'll give all this away for free, but compiled. I'm a little short on capital, and I need donations, otherwise I'd give it away with the full source code... I'm telling you this to be honest and not mess around...

    I really want the TwinBasic project to move forward and be a revolution, because almost every programmer has used VB6 at some point and knows it's very fast and efficient...

    Once in the 90s at Microsoft, they told me they preferred VB6 programmers because a C++ or C# program takes a long time. However, in VB6, it takes much less time and it's almost the same. Furthermore, parts that require speed can be done in DLLs in assembler, or C++, or C#...

    But is there already created a label in TwinBasic, with functional HTML support that's already built for 32- and 64-bit versions?

    Regards...

    Re: TwinBasic

    It doesn't support html or objects like images (though the latter shouldn't be too hard to add since the DirectWrite/Direct2D rendering pipeline supports it), but my recent label control supports color fonts (for color emojis), font effects bold/italic/underline/strike through/stretch applied to specific ranges, word wrap options, angled text, right to left, etc).

    I did post the source but I am starting to put no commercial use licenses on stuff. Also didn't post binaries so if someone wants a 64bit version without a splash screen they can at least go support twinBASIC, which I'd like to see succeed.

    I don't understand, so, to ask about TwinBasic options, where do I do it?

    If it can't be done here, there should be a thread specifically for TwinBasic options, not a thread somewhere lost...

    A specialized topic on different options with TwinBasic... Don't lost in the vast web of topics... Something more focused, OCXs, applications, etc., for use in TwinBasic. I thought it was logical to have it here...

    If it doesn't exist, I think it should be opened...

    TwinBasic is important enough, in my opinion, to have, if not here, two main topics: the one here, just for new versions or improvements of TwinBasic itself, and another generic topic, for contributions to TwinBasic...

    In my humble opinion...

    TwinBASIC programming language

    Formation of TWINBASIC LTD.

    Effective Monday, 10th November 2025, all business operations previously conducted by Wayne Phillips (trading as iTech Masters), including all twinBASIC and EverythingAccess products and services, are being transferred to a newly formed UK limited company: TWINBASIC LTD.


    Wayne Phillips states:-


    Forming a limited company provides a stronger structure for future growth, clearer legal and financial separation, and greater long-term security for both our customers and our team.

    Importantly, nothing about who we are is changing. The same people will continue to operate and support our products and services, led by Wayne Phillips, founder and principal developer of twinBASIC, and supported by Louise Phillips who continues in her role as Sales & Administration Assistant.


    What’s changing?

    From 10th November 2025:

    • The official legal entity behind all products and services will become TWINBASIC LTD.
    • Future invoices, receipts, and contractual references will list TWINBASIC LTD as the trading entity.
    • All existing agreements, subscriptions, and licences will transfer automatically to the new company.

    For most customers, there will be no interruption to services - your accounts, licences, and support arrangements will continue as normal.

    Subscription customers


    If you currently hold an active subscription licence, we may need to ask you to re-set up your subscription under the new company account during the transition period.
    Further details will be provided in due course, and affected customers will be contacted directly with clear instructions. We’ll make the process as simple and seamless as possible, and we’ll ensure there’s no loss of service or entitlement during the transition.

    What’s transferring to TWINBASIC LTD?


    All existing business assets, rights, and obligations are being transferred to TWINBASIC LTD, including:

    • All twinBASIC software, services, and licensing systems
    • All EverythingAccess software, tools, services, licensing and support resources
    • All active customer accounts, subscriptions, and licences
    • All intellectual property, trademarks, and domains
    • All contractual rights and liabilities, including ongoing support and maintenance commitments

    This ensures complete continuity of service and legal protection for all customers of both twinBASIC and EverythingAccess.

    Who we are


    TWINBASIC LTD is a UK-registered private limited company (Company No. 16590181) wholly owned and operated by Wayne Phillips, the founder and developer of twinBASIC. The company’s mission is to continue supporting and developing twinBASIC and EverythingAccess products, ensuring a secure and sustainable future for our customers and community.

    What this means for you


    For most customers, nothing changes day-to-day. You’ll continue to:

    • Access your licences, downloads, and updates as usual
    • Receive the same high-quality support and communication
    • Be billed or invoiced under the new company name

    The only visible difference will be that TWINBASIC LTD now appears as the official business entity on all correspondence and documentation.

    Questions?


    If you have any questions about this transition, please contact us at [email protected].
