This VB 6.0 example demonstrates a good way to manage dynamic menu configuration using the UniMenu control.

3 different techniques for saving and subsequently restoring Unicode® data stored in a UniText control to and from a disk file. These techniques can be generalised to apply to all UniToolbox controls.

There are two ways to set the font property values for UniToolbox controls. Either set the 'Font' property object to a preconfigured StdFont object or use the font property 'helper' methods, FontName, FontSize, FontBold, etc..

Setting the properties of the font object directly is not recommended, and does not work (by design) for all UniToolbox controls. For example:

' This will not work for UniToolbox controls.
MyUniToolboxControl.Font.Name = "My Font Name"

' This is OK.
MyUniToolboxControl.FontName = "My Font Name"

If you need to allow users to modify the system color scheme whilst your application is running you may be interested in our VB 6.0 example demonstrating how to respond to these changes as they occur.

If you need to save, and subsequently load, the data you display in UniToolbox controls in a SQL Server database our VB 6.0 example may help you.
