Our TX Text Control ActiveX version is not only used in Visual Basic 6.0 or Delphi, but also in many development environments that support the ActiveX technology like MS Access or Sybase Powerbuilder.
TX Text Control ActiveX uses a lot of constant names that can be easily used in Visual Basic 6.0, but not in other languages. In these cases, the numeric values must be used.
The following code can be executed in Visual Basic 6.0:
Prev: 
Next: TXTextControl.LoadSaveAttribute(txLoadImages) = TrueIn other language, the numeric value of the constant must be used:
TXTextControl.LoadSaveAttribute(37) = TrueI thought to share a summary list of all constants:
