' Name: Add Splitter Bars to your app *R
' evised*
' Description:Add vertical and horizonta
' l splitter bars to your application. Thi
' s
code creates a form With three panes, and two splitter bars. I originally
found the code In Planet Source Code last year, but found a couple of
bugs, so I rebuilt it from scratch, and added the horizontal splitter.
There are no DLL's or references To worry about, very easy to use.
' By: Eugene
'
' Inputs:It is easy to integrate into yo
' ur applications. You simply paste whatev
' er
objects that you want To use into one of the three picture boxes used as
frames. Then In the _Resize Event of each, change the .Move statement To
your object (or control).
'
' Assumes:Copy the code and paste it int
' o a text editor (like notepad). Save the
' file
as Form1.frm. You can always change it later.
