LabelControls is a library containing three Unicode-supporting ActiveX controls: SysLink, WindowedLabel and WindowlessLabel. SysLink is a label control that is optimized for displaying text that contains hyperlinks. The links can be clicked, they can be displayed in another color if already visited, they can have a tool tip... WindowedLabel und WindowlessLabel are normal label controls that are very similar. The main difference is that WindowedLabel is based on the native static control of Windows and creates a child window for itself, while WindowlessLabel is fully owner-drawn and implemented as a windowless control, making it very light-weight. All controls support all the latest features of Microsoft Windows 7. Drawing of the controls can be customized through custom drawing and owner drawing.
The library is optimized for Visual Basic 6.0, but should also work in any other environment that supports COM controls.
