Cannn''''tttt believe I've got completely dumbfounded by this!
I want to drag and drop a list box entry onto another list box entry, BUT:
1) If I simply change the DragMode of the source listbox to automatic then I
can't pick an individual entry on the list box and I'm simply dragging the
whole source listbox onto the destination listbox, which quite rightly (or
so it appears) can't identify a particular text entry.
2) If I leave the source listbox on manual DragMode and set the mode to auto
when I do click, mousedown or mouseup on the listbox then I can click on an
individual entry, but I have to click on the item, let go of the mouse, then
click on this item again to drag it onto my destination list box!! If I've
incorrectly clicked on a particular list item then I have to do a dummy drag
n drop just so I can go and pick the one that I want!
All I want to do is pick on a particular entry on a list box and then drag
that entry to a destination list box so that the destination knows what text
entry was.
Can't believe this is so difficult!
FYR, I'm running vb6 sp6.
Many thanks for any help you can give.

When a from with a calendar control opens, the calendar shows the current month
and displays the correct day as: "Today: 5/17/2008". However the wrong day is
highlighted in gray in the month. How can I make the current day be
highlighted in red when the form opens?

Hi
Could anybody help me on the following problems:
a) Cursors
Although fine in XP, Vista makes the hand cursor that I have in my res file
go flaky, crappy and virtually invisible. It appears that if I changed the
hand cursor to an icon and create 'x' amount of types, eg 32x32, 48x48, etc
this MAY solve it, but how to get a hotspot in an icon?
If this isn't the way then what kind of cursor can I use that won't go
screwy?? The hand icon I'm using appears to be exactly the same one as in
IE, ie black outline of a white hand, 32x32 in size (although the hand only
seems to be something like 17x22).
b) Icons
Aaaarrggghhhh.... my icons look tishy in XP cos VB6 will only allow me to
add 256 colour ones to my res file. Is there anyway round this? I've got
some great true colour ones, but I just can't use 'em.
Please don't tell me that I've got to hack into my app afterwards - this is
pants!! :0)

Hi All
I might be being a little dim here, but when I use the tabbed dialog of VB6
SP6 to acutally put controls into each tabbed section I have to actually add
'x' amount of frames to my form and add the controls to these frames.
Through code I then show/hide the appropriate frame depending on which tab
is clicked.
Is this correct?
If so why the hell does the tabbed window extend downards as if you could
put things into each tab straight away?
Another thing, how does anybody design a clutch of tabbed windows, as I
don't seem to have the space on my form to neatly display all of the frames
so that I can see them.
At the mo, I keep frantically moving them round, showing, hiding, etc and
it's a nightmare. How can anybody work this way?
I've seen some apps that have 15 or so tabs does this mean they are fiddling
around with 15 framed windows every time they need to make a change?
Thanks

Hi All
I can't believe it!
My WinXP developed VB6 SP6 app seems to work fine in Vista apart from one
small problem.
I didn't want to use a load of API stuff to get the 'hand' cursor when the
user moves their mouse pointer over buttons and the like so I added a hand
cursor to my res file and called this icon every time the user moves over
certain objects. This seems to be a far simpler and 'greener' way of doing
it, but my cursor icon looks completely washed out, as if half the pixels
are missing.
Does anybody know why this happens?
I took the hand cursor from a standard icon in WinXP's system (I think) so I
can't see why this happens.
On another point you only seem to be able to add an icon with a max of 256
colours through the res manager - is there anyway to get round this as the
other icons I use would look so much better in 256+ colours.
Thanks

Is there a way in vb6 to read and store information in a JPEG file. I
have a program which saves jpeg files to a folder but in the process I
want to store a subject (text) somewhere in the file other than the
filename.
Can vb access the picture properties and change or add to them?
(Excuse cross post in comp.lang.basic.misc - originally sent to wrong
newsgroup)
