(About the author)

Shows Win9x resources level (System, User and GDI). Ofcause it will not work on NT, because it does not handle resources the same way as Win95. Included is some usercontrols, like: PopDown, ProgressGuage, Coolbutton and TrayIcon. So if you do not want it for the resource meter, you can always download it for the other source. Executable is enclosed. Besides resources it also shows memory information, allows you to mark current resource level (great to check for resource leaks in your program). It is a "finished" program, so you can use it straight away.

are these controls free? Where did you 
get them and is there doc?  Please give 
a link to where you found them I need 
some nice controls

1/14/2000 2:12:27 AM:Tony

Scott, so far I know these controls are 
free. I wrote most of them anyhow 
(mostly from bit and pieces of code 
lying around). Only the control 
Coolbutton from from PSC, but slightly 
modified (like everyone else does when 
you take code from here). Use it. Make 
you life easier: that's why we have 
reuseable components for... 
(Documentation not available, no time 
for it - deadlines all the time, but 
once you read the code you will 
understand.)

Forgot about the 98 problem. Right at 
this moment, I have no access to a 
Win98/2000 platform. Will have one soon 
(at work we must test our apps on all 
windows platform - you never know what 
the customer will be using). So you 
have to dive into the code yourself. 
There is a "protection" code that stop 
executing resource code on NT, have a 
look at that, maybe it stops too many 
platforms.

Where you find controls for your 
program?

1/17/2000 1:45:21 AM:Tony

Eh, what, Bugy? You mean the 
lightweight stuff or the submissions I 
did? Besides looking over the net for 
samples (and PSC is a GREAT source of 
VB code. Thanks, Ian) and ideas (and 
using Dan's VB API book), I make those 
controls myself, I am a professional 
programmer, that means: I make a living 
to create systems (thus no hobby). The 
lightweight stuff comes from the Visual 
Studio CD's (I think CD 3, but have a 
look at the other submissions comments 
section, someone found the location for 
me).

Thanks Vicky. Only update is a small
