Getting Started in VB

Working with the COM object

1. Install the component on your system by starting its setup program.
2. In the Visual Basic IDE, create a new project or open an existing one.
3. Click on 'Project', then on the 'References' menu
4. Find and select 'WeOnlyDo! COM Crypt Component', and click on 'Ok' to leave the dialog box.
5. Open the code editor and at the top in the (General) section add this code:
   
    
      Dim WithEvents Crypt1 As wodCryptCom
    
   
   
6. In Form_Load function initialize the component:
   
    
      Private Sub Form_Load()
       Set Crypt1 = New wodCryptCom
      End Sub
    
   
   
7. If you have the licensed version of wodCrypt, then after you initialize the component, set its LicenseKey property:
   
    
      Private Sub Form_Load()
       Set Crypt1 = New wodCryptCom
       Crypt1.LicenseKey = "xxxx....xxxx"
      End Sub
    
   
   
8. To free up resources when your program ends, destroy the component from the Form_Unload event:
   
    
      Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
       Set Crypt1 = Nothing
      End Sub
    
   
   
9. Do not forget to distribute wodCrypt.DLL when using the COM object!

Working with the ActiveX control

1. Install the component on your system by starting its setup program.
2. In the Visual Basic IDE, create a new project or open an existing one.
3. Click on 'Project', then on the 'Components' menu
4. Find and select 'WeOnlyDo! COM Crypt ActiveX Control', and click on 'Ok' to leave the dialog box.
5. Locate the new wodCrypt icon on the Toolbox toolbar
6. Do not forget to distribute wodCrypt.OCX when using the ActiveX control!
