Daniel,
Do you still need a hand creating the Windows equivalent of the Spinner
? Please drop me a line at: xencoder at bellsouth dot net, if you want
some help with this. FYI, a "spinner" is native control of sorts in
Windows, but with the following caveats:
A) It's called an UpDown control in Windows.
B) It's one of the "Common Controls" ( of which there are SEVERAL
incantations thereof ), usually found in ComCtl32.dll ( or something
named like that, the names or the packaging have changed through the
years to protect the guilty).
C) The union of the "Arrow" portion of the Spinner is the direct visual
implementation that exists within Windows.
D) "C" above usually get "Married" to an Edit control ( or Buddy, as
it's called ), which the Arrow control will send notification to, to
control to update the displayed contents within the Edit Control.
Essentially, what I've described is the "nuts and bolts" of it. Let me
know if you're still looking for help with, it shouldn't take that long
to hammer out.
