Draw DLL                                                 VDS 5.x and above Win 9x/NT/2k/XP

This is a small freeware DLL that encapsulates several API draw functions into a easy to use interface. It was basically designed for Visual basic users. With the capabilities of VDS 5 to call any DLL it is possible to use such a DLL in VDS. The functions have been simplified further by building an include file, somewhat like a VB class module.
So you have more than 20 easy to use english like commands/functions available which helps in manipulating a bitmap on your Visual Dialogscript dialog.
Noscreensaver                                            VDS 5.x and above Win 9x/NT/2k/XP
A simple example to use a freeware non VDS DLL to Disable Screen saver when your app is running and auto re-enable when your app closes.
You can also disable screen saver in general. Why this dll and not plain API ?Because then if your app crashes then screen saver continues to remain disabled. See the attached .dsc file for more details.

The WaveMix DLL is a utility that allows multiple WAV files to be played simultaneously. It is designed to be as simple to use as possible but still have the power to do what is required by games. The DLL supports 8 channels of simultaneous wave play,..... WaveMix uses the standard sound drivers, it is not dependent of special drivers. This non VDS dll has been interfaced for VDS 5.x. Enjoy !

This is a simple dll interface for CPPSUM32.DLL that helps you retrieve file information from files containing OLE 2.0 Summary (All MS Office Documents) For your easy use all the functions are encapsulated into a unit.

ActiveX Dll's for VDS 5.x

This section contains a few dll's using ActiveX/COM Dll's interfaced for VDS.  Using them is at your own risk.

Telephone dialer                                                                        VDS 5.x and above NT/2k/XP

This is a package that helps you to dial your telephone connected to your modem from your VDS app. In win 9x you can use MSDOS to dial but in windows 2k/NT/XP the operating system being very secure limits hardware access to .drv/.sys/.ocx files running in ring 0 only. So if you try to communicate  with your modem from a exe or dll a "Privileged Instruction"
error occurs and the command fails.
The current app uses MSCOMM32.OCX which comes with windows XP
may be 2k also and activex dlls. You need VB 6 runtimes if you are not using WinXP and don't have MSVBVM60.DLL in your system32 directory.

All the calls/procedures are wrapped in a DSU unit. So use is very easy.

NB: This dll sometimes throws errors messages in VDS due to unknown reasons/bug although it works well when called from other environments. I have not taken this to be a serious error but if you are legally speaking then read the disclaimer.

App Bar window                                   VDS 5.x and above Win 9x/NT/2k/XP

This is a small demo to make app bars/sidebars like the window taskbar from your VDS app dialog. The script uses a VB ActiveX Dll. All the functions are wrapped into dsu for easy use with english like VDS commands. You need VB 6 runtimes if you are not using WinXP and don't have MSVBVM60.DLL in your system(32) directory.

ScreenCapture Unit                                                VDS 5.x and above Win 9x/NT/2k/XP

This is a activeX dll interfaced with a freeware OCX to capture the screen.
You can capture entire screen or an active window or a window of your choice or even a region of the screen and save it as a bitmap to a specified location. All the functions are wrapped into dsu for easy use with english like VDS commands. You need VB 6 runtimes if you are not using WinXP and don't have MSVBVM60.DLL in your system(32) directory.
