I've had a lot of requests for the DLL's and custom controls I use in my programs. For all you programmers who don't belong to any of the Online services HERE THEY ARE. I've taken the best of the shareware, Freeware and public domain software I could find relating to Visual Basic programming and created this 4 disk set. When you register VBToolBox you can also order any or all of the programming disks. The cost is $5.00 per disk or $20 for the set. Postage and handling is included for orders within the US. For foreign orders add $4.00 shipping and handling. This listing is accurate as of July 31 1992. As long as there is interest I'll keep updating each disk adding additional files as I find them. I hope this meets all your needs and thanks for trying VBToolBox Pro.
