Introduction

 

Add FlpGrf.OCX to Visual Basic Project


 

Visual Basic allows you to use the control in design mode - data entered through the property dialog, or in runtime mode - setting property and methods and handling events in code. To get started lets start VB 4.0 and begin developing a new project that will use FlpGrf.OCX.

 

To add FlpGrf.OCX to your new VB project select the Tools menu item, then Custom Controls, and finally check the box next to Flipper Graph Control.

You should have a new icon appear on the tool bar.

To add the control to the form, select the new icon representing FlpGrf.OCX. Click the left mouse down on the form and drag the mouse. You should see a rectangle being drawn on the form. When you release the mouse button, the Flipper Graph Control will have been placed on the form in that area.

Now that you've inserted the control, click here to create your first graph, to familiarize yourself with the control.
