MH3DMULTILABEL is a data-aware label control which allows multiple columns which contain the capabilities of the MH3D control, and allows the ability to automatically align the control to the top or the bottom of the form.
MH3DOPTION is a data-aware option button which allows the use of pictures to represent the various states (checked, unchecked, grayed, pressed), and allows the button to be resized and aligned to the left or to the right.
MH3DTEXT is a data-aware text box which can be automatically aligned horizontally.
MHALARM rings an alarm and displays a bitmap to grab the users attention; the programmer can configure from the default alarms (clock, wrist watch, or telephone) or can create an original alarm by providing bitmaps and wave files.

MHCARD, MHDICE is a picture control that displays a fixed set of bitmaps that represent playing cards (MHCARD) or up to six dice (MHDICE).
MHCLOCK is a clock control which will display the time on a clock face; it will also allow the programmer to use a custom bitmap instead of the default one.
MHCOMMAND is a command button which supports multiple line captions, and replacement of the standard button image with programmer-defined bitmaps.
MHFILEDISPLAY is a text box which will display a file, and adds search capabilities.
MHCOMMONDIALOG is a common dialog control which allows additional controls to be placed on the dialog box, allows the dialog to be resized, and adds a FileNameChange event for open/save dialogs.
MHINPUT is a data-aware text box control which allows a custom format to be defined for input up to the first 50 positions, has predefined input masks like phone numbers and social security numbers, has overstrike mode, has an undo option, and adds an event which is fired when invalid input is received.
MHMASKINPUT is exactly like the MHINPUT control except that it adds design- / run-time configuration via INI files.
MHDATEINPUT is exactly like MHINPUT except that only date input is allowed, and it can contain spin buttons.
MHINTINPUT is exactly like the MHINPUT except that only integer input is allowed, and it can contain spin buttons.
MHREALINPUT is exactly like the MHINPUT except that only real number input is allowed, and it can contain spin buttons.
MHTIMEINPUT is exactly like the MHINPUT except that only time input is allowed, and it can contain spin buttons.
MHDIAL is a data-aware control which acts like a radio dial, and can contain a custom bitmap.
MHFILELIST is a file list box which contains information about a file, and includes drives and directories in the list box as well.
MHHISTOGRAPH is a control which will graph information on the screen as if the screen were a piece of paper, the paper can be moved forward and backward, and different colors can be used to do the plotting.
MHIMAGE is picture box control which displays BMP, TGA, ICON, GIF, PCX, TIF, and WMF files (including 24 bit color files); the control will also allow zooming in or out on the picture.
MHINI (REGISTRY) is a control which gives a program the ability to easily retrieve, add, or modify data contained in INI files or from the Windows Registry; no function calls required.
MHINVISIBLE is an invisible control which can be placed on top of forms to allow the clicking of a location to fire events.
