Components


Notice!!!

As of 7/1/2000, the Components page has evolved into the Download page. The reason for the change is that I have sample code and utilities that are not components, and I need a place for people to go to download.

If you reached this page from a BCBDEV.COM document, then that document has an error. Notify me at hhowe@bcbdev.com. If you reached this page through an outside link, notify web admin of that site, or let me know and I can tell them.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. The new page can be found here. All of the old information on this page is still here. However, it is not being updated. The latest and greatest stuff is on the download page.
