About Visual Basic Tips & Tricks
================================

The future of this project rests on you shoulders... I
wanted to develop this help file to provide some sort of
centralized forum for users to share  VB Tips & Tricks.  I
want to pool information from many different sources into
one help file.

As you might already know, Microsoft books and help files
are (in my opinion) not written very well. They do not
contain much help that a normal programmer might want. Some
of their information is even printed wrong! So where does
one turn? To off-the-shelf books, user forums, magazine
articles and the like. Try to keep all that organized to
retrieve the information you need quickly. Not so easy, is
it?

I want this help file to provide HELP with small  VB Tips &
Tricks. Undocumented ones, work arounds, easier way to do
things etc...  But I need your help!. I need your input!



Please submit your VB Tips & Tricks for others to use.
Since this help file is freeware or public domain, the only
thing you will receive is your name imbedded in this help
file forever.


How to submit your  VB Tips & Tricks:

How To Receive Updates:
=======================

The easiest way is to receive them electronically through e-mail. 
To get on the e-mailing list just submit a VB Tip or Trick!
Use my e-mail address above and send me your name, e-mail
address, coding preference (uuencode or binhex) and file
size limitations your system might have along with your VB
Tip or Trick. My system has a 500K limit, so if and when the
zipped file reaches that size, e-mail will no longer work.
This will also be posted on many InterNet systems and BBS
systems to be listed in the next version.
