Custom Controls Library

Summary: A great VB book that you'll want to add to your library.....
Review: Excellent book on ActiveX creation. The 101 controls included on the CD alone justify the price, not to mention that they all come with source code so that they can be extended. As an added bonus you'll not only learn about creating ActiveX; the controls included cover topics like image processing, data display and manipulation, buttons, text manipulation and much more. While not a book for the complete novice, this book is something I think you'll want to add to your library; if I could have I would have given this a 20 instead of a 10!

Summary: Add powerful ActiveX controls to your applications!
Review: This book explains how to create ActiveX controls using the Visual Basic 5 Control Creation Edition (CCE). It also includes a brief chapter on Visual Basic fundamentals, and a WORKING COPY of the CCE, so users of C++, Delphi, and other languages can create controls quickly and easily.

The book includes 101 ready-to-run ActiveXcontrols (I don't know why it says 150 in the other comments) you can use immediately. You can also modify them to create your own controls.

This site also contains lots of tips,tricks, and example programs demonstrating advanced Visual Basic techniques.

If you have comments, suggestions, or whatever, I'd love to hear from you at [e-mail].

Summary: Well worth Double the Price!!!!
Review: This book is well worth the price just for the executable controls you get. The source code is even included. All controls are explained in great detail and even suggestions for enhancing them are included. Most of the controls mimic commerically available controls costing hundreds of dollars each. And with this book and cd-rom, you can even change the way they work without having to wait on a vendor to add the functionality for you!
