Support code for PowerBASIC and Visual Basic
| Downloading is now available. We will have both source code and
dll's with examples in the near future - right now source to
the dll is not available. All DLL's are written in
PowerBASIC, so the code is not bloated. PB Win 7.0 was just
released in June of 2002 and all of the routines here were written in the
beta versions first and then compiled in the current version before
uploading. All new files since 6/16/02 are in PB Win 7.0 and may not be
compatible with earlier versions of the PBDll compiler. To learn more about the fine
line of compiler tools available from PowerBASIC, click

| Below is a screen shot of the registry tool demo screen, using the RSRegistryTool.DLL. The VB demo looks the same except for the name and VB does not have DWORDS, so the DWORD test is missing. In the screen show, Test Create Key was first pressed and the result window shows the resulting key. Next, String Value was created, but we first read the value and found nothing stored, so the default came back. We then saved a Long value, but have not read it as yet. While we went in order, the only item that has to be done first is Create a key. For the demo, but for an existing key, this software can read and save those. Download the program now! (new 3/28/04 upload fixes a string bug) |

In the January 2001 issue of VBPJ (Visual
Basic Programming Journal) there was an article entitled
"Add C++ to your VB Apps" which said 'Replace slow
VB functions with slicker ones in C++ to make your VB apps
run faster". But we say "why change the language
to be faster? Write the DLL in PowerBASIC and it wil be more
compact and run Faster than c++!" Download
the code now and see for yourself. | |

Did you ever forget your Screen Saver
Password? This program, written in PowerBASIC DLL, is only
16k in the exe. Does not require any run-time, but it does
use the Ridge Software Registry DLL (along with other
windows DLL's as every windows program does), available
above and included in the setup file. If you already have
this on your system this will not overwrite your file.
Source available soon. Download
Now. | |
