I don't like the HideGadget approach, it's faster but it doesn't look good with the ListIcon gadget disappearing briefly while it gets filled and then reappearing. What do you think about the (in my opinion :wink: ) most user friendly approach of hiding the gadget but displaying a search animation ...

With Helle's fine code example from the German forum you can check the available extensions of the CPU on which your program is running:

@Tranquil: This is a stripped down and working code example to logon into a TSO session on an IBM mainframe via Telnet: ; Example code to logon into TSO on an IBM Mainframe via Telnet ; ----- Change these settings to those of your mainframe account #AccountNumber = "Your account number" #P...

At work we use Rumba as a Mainframe, and I tried to get access through pb to its telnet server. It seems to me that you have some misconceptions in mind for communication with a mainframe. If you are communicating with an IBM mainframe running z/OS (formerly OS/390, MVS/ESA, MVS/XA, MVS/SP) in form...

@ChebbyShabby: Take a look at Lars' Telnet suite posted at the German forum: http://www.purebasic.fr/german/archive/viewtopic.php?t=4603 Download link: [url=http://]home.arcor.de/master_lars/Lars'%20Telnet.zip[/url] I tried.

@utopiomania:
Did you try the forum search? netmaestro already posted a similar example at october 21st:

If you want to see which cursors are contained as resources in a library (like .Exe, .DLL, .OCX or .Scr), try the following code example which displays all cursors of MSPaint.Exe: #RT_GROUP_CURSOR = 12 NewList ResNameList.S() Procedure.l EnumResNameProc(ResHandle.L, ResType.L, ResName.L, AppParam.L)...

srod, unfortunately I am no expert in working with resources and therefore can't answer your question about the details in the difference between the use of ExtractIcon_() and LoadImage_(). But if you want to know how to scan for resources in DLL- and Exe-Files, take a look into the nice code from V...

netmaestro,

I am very proud of having been able to help you, because your (and srod's) uncountable and very profound code examples have made my programming life a lot easier...

netmaestro, I used ResourceHacker ( http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker ) to list all resources from MSPaint.Exe. When using resource hacker to open MSPaint.Exe you have to open the tree view node "Cursor Group" and take a look at the different cursor nodes. When opening node 1204 and cli...

Unfortunately I dont have this icon on my harddisc. But you can surely extract it from Paint with some Icontools. The following 'icon extractor' only locates 6 icons embedded within mspaint.exe This code example demonstrates how to use the cursor resource from MSPaint.Exe (tested with WinNT SP6 and...

Simply do a SetGadgetText(GadgetID, GetGadgetText(GadgetID) + "*.*") to refresh the ExplorerTreeGadget as in the example below: OpenWindow(1, 0, 0, 290, 370, "ExplorerTreeGadget Refresh", #PB_Window_ScreenCentered | #PB_Window_SystemMenu) CreateGadgetList(WindowID(1)) ExplorerTre...

Have you tried whether the example code from freak suits your needs?
