Can anyone tell is there any way to add smiley in RichTextBox. If possible kindly provide link or code to proceed
It'll depend on what smiley you want to add but there are lots of options.
For instance:
<RichTextBox>
<Paragraph>;)</Paragraph>
<Paragraph>☺</Paragraph>
<Paragraph>⍪</Paragraph>
</RichTextBox>

Make a list as normal then right click and inline them
I have developed an installer with Nsis with a components page in which the user can select the components to install. I would like to change the size of the component list window and make it greater in order to make visible the entire text of each component without scroll bars.
Does anybody know how I can do it? I'm using simple MUI.nsh, not MUI2.nsh.
Any help will be pleasant. Thanks in advance.
Define MUI_COMPONENTSPAGE_SMALLDESC or MUI_COMPONENTSPAGE_NODESC, if that is not enough you will need to use a custom dialog (ChangeUI)
I am junior i C# coding, learned things in console output.
Now i am trying to understand the forms better and trying to make an app in windows form.
My goal is to do a foreach( do enumration) loop what is pinging some hosts from file.
This part i succeeded.
Now i want to present this in a form wiht the next layout.
hostname(text) ipadress(text)
i want the line to be selectable for a contextmenu.
I tried to do it in a textbox, but no succes, so i wanted to try it in a richtextbox but i am not sure if this is the proper choice.
Does anyone know what kind of control i have to use to achieve my goal, and which methods i should use.
I am not asking for writing me the whole code, just help me to think in the right way.
Your help would be very appriciated.
thanks.
I want to put help buttons on all my windows, like this:
But when I put the help button in, the minimize/maximize buttons disappear. Does Windows forbid having the min/max buttons together with the help buttons? That would be disappointing because that would mean I could put the help button only on dialogs and not on frames.
If Windows does forbid this, it would be nice to see an official Microsoft document which talks about this policy.
It is not possible through setting windows styles. If you really wanted to you could set some hooks that would probably let you do what you want, but I would not recommend doing that. You can mimic the functionality of the help button by sending the WM_HELP message.
According to MSDN, the styles WS_MAXIMIZEBOX and WS_MINIMIZEBOX can not be combined with WS_EX_CONTEXTHELP.
Although it is true what daalbert says, with some effort it is indeed possible to draw just about anything properly on the window frame. Of course this is in no way "official" and the limitation that daalbert mentions still stands.
You can listen for WM_NCPAINT and draw the button yourself with the help of DrawFrameControl with DFC_BUTTON (which makes sure it will look like the real thing). Use WM_NCHITTEST and friends (WM_NC*BUTTON*) to find out whether the button you draw gets clicked.
So yes, it's technically possible to achieve what you want but usually not worth the extra effort.
Just wanted to have this on record for completeness.
Heloo there? Is there any way to change the color [back and forecolor] of a Messagebox? Iam using VB6.0... Thanks in advance!
To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to do this. There is, however, a typical workaround.
The most common method for creating custom "message boxes" in VB6 is to create a new form in your project that acts specifically as a message box. You Show it when you need it, and then Hide or Unload it when the user clicks "OK" or "Cancel" or whatever. You can size the form the same as (or differently from) a MsgBox, create the buttons you want, make the colors as you choose, etc. Whenever you would have a message box pop up to tell the user something, you will instead call this form and change the text/color/other variables to whatever you need them to be.
This may seem annoying at first, but once you've done it once, it's very easy to see how useful a tool this new form template can become. It's code you might find yourself frequently reusing between various applications.
If you need any help with forms or form events, this is a pretty good basic tutorial which should tell you most of what you need to make this work:

Good luck!
