Subject: RE: MI : window size
dependency
Hello Jacques and all,
If you go to my website, then to WinAPI, you
will find the source code you copy into you MB app that stops the user from
closing, moving, min, and max. The "resize" is removed from the
menu command [top left of window] but the window still has "drag"
[at least on WinNT] capability.
Languages like VB MB Delphi C etc, are just an
easy way [sometimes not the best way] to control Windoze....but the WinAPI
"IS" Windoze.
I have a prologue that lists a few books that
popped up on the results at Amazon.com [notice no link, check you favorite
book outlet] of about 130+ when I entered "WinAPI' in the
search......I'm not promoting anything but look into the author's
integration with VisualBasic [that's the first listing and pub'd 1999] as
very little is different from MB [API uses "long" as an integer
where MI is just "Integer"] which will make understanding how to
setup the call a bit easier. The books should have the calls listed
[or maybe CD] which will help. All the stuff I have came with
developer software [Delphi/VB] and is extremely difficult to understand as
most of it references the C++ structures.
Here's what is currently on available [more as
get the time]
FILE FUNCTIONS
Get a list of
the files in a folder
Get the "Windows" folder
Get the "Windows System" folder
Get the "System Temp" folder
Get the current
folder
Set the current folder
Create New
Folder
WINDOW FUNCTIONS
Get the
handle of the current focused window [blue title bar]
Disable Min/Max/Close on a window [can be any window]
Your
own Message Dialog
SYSTEM FUNCTIONS [date/time, etc]
Get the System TIME [also for creating Globally Unique
Identifiers Guide's]
Delay without code loops
Get the "User" Name [network log-in]
Use you own INI File
ENJOY...............................
