It's more than a hodgepodge of controls!!

Desaware's ActiveX Gallimaufry is a brand new, somewhat eclectic collection of ActiveX components. Some of them you may find very useful, some of them you may find entertaining, but all of them you will find educational and helpful, because each component is authored in Visual Basic 5.0 and includes full VB5 source code.

In keeping with Desaware's philosophy that it is equally valuable to teach technology as is to provide it, we have authored each component to demonstrate a different programming technique of Visual Basic. From graphics manipulations such as math algorithms, the Win32 API, and transparency, to complex concepts such as subclassing and memory management, each component will provide you with a new way of programming in Visual Basic. For further information, check out each of the individual descriptions below.
