Adding Buttons and Misc Items

[Irish Sniper]

Hey all!

Just wondering how I would add 'Minimizing and Maximizing' buttons to the Web Browser I'm making. Also looking for how to add a bar at the bottom. (Like the one that IE has.)

Any help would be great.

Well that rather depends on the environment that you are developing in. If you are using MFC adding a status bar is relatively simple. If you aren't it may not be.

Maximise and Minimise buttons are handled by Windows, just set the relevent style bits when you create the window.

Oops for some reason I assumed you where doing C/C++.

In VB you shouldbe able to set the window style options throught the form properties (I think I am no VB expert).

As to the status bar, check your VB documentation see if it provides a helper class to do it for you.

Hehe, happens. Couldn't find any form properties about the window style. I'll look around though.

Will look for that helper about the status bar too.
