- WARNING: Snippits is written in BASIC. If you enjoy Snippits and find it
- useful, please let me know. I would like to convert it to C++, and I will,
- but only if I get some good feedback first.
-
- Copyright: There is none. Copy it all day long, I don't care.
-
- Required Files:
- VBDB300.DLL (Included. Should be copied to your Windows\SYSTEM
- directory.)
- VBRUN300.DLL (Not Included). Available from Microsoft forums on
- CompuServe and the Microsoft Download Service.
- Should also be copied to Windows\SYSTEM directory.
- MSAJT110.DLL (Not Included). Available from Microsoft forums on
- CompuServe and the Microsoft Download Service.
- MSAES110.DLL (Included). Should be copied to your Windows\SYSTEM
- directory.)
- ***** NOTE *****
- If you have Visual Basic 3.0 Professional or Microsoft Access 1.1
- installed on your system, you already have MSAJT110.DLL and
- MSAES110.DLL. At least you should, if you plan on using either
- product!
-
- Installing Snippits:
- 1) Copy the above files to the appropriate locations.
- 2) Put SNIPPITS.MDB and SNIPPITS.EXE in the SAME directory.
- (Any directory is OK)
-
- Running Snippits:
- Snippits is simple. Enter a few keywords or a description. For
- example: If you need to look up examples of creating a Window
- Class enter: WndClass. Click Find and Snippits will search through
- the database looking for this word in the description fields. It
- will not look in each code snippit (This would take too long,
- especially written in BASIC. Maybe for the next cut in C++).
- You will be presented with a list of snippits that contain the word
- WndClass in the description. Double-Click the snippit in the list
- box to have the full code snippit displayed to the right. You can
- now edit, update, save and print the snippit. If you would like to
- see more of the snippit than is displayed on your screen, select
- Zoom from the Snippits pull-down menu, or double click anywhere in
- the snippit text. This will bring up the Zoom Window with the
- snippit displayed. You can edit here also. If you make any changes
- to the snippit, make sure to click Update! before returning to
- the main screen. This will copy the Zoom window to the main snippit
- window. If you want to update this snippit permanently, click on
- Update on the main screen. That's about it. Have fun!
