I’ve fixed some bugs in the EditControls library. Some properties could not be changed at runtime.

ShellBrowserControls 1.2.0
Recently I’ve worked quite alot on ShellBrowserControls, and now it’s time to release all the improvements to the public.
Version 1.2.0 fixes a couple of bugs and mainly improves browsing of slow items (e.g. remote namespaces). Now info tips are retrieved asynchronously if the environment supports it, and the main thread no longer is hung while some background thread is working on a remote namespace.
However, in “Tiles” view mode there still is some blocking between background threads and main thread which I could not yet track down. Also Windows XP still seems to have some problems with blocking between threads. I have a theory that this is mainly caused by the way how thumbnail mode is implemented for Windows XP. Unfortunately I cannot really change this implementation.Many thanks to Christian Lütgens for his suggestions and his great help with testing.

ExplorerListView 1.2.0
I’ve released ExplorerListView 1.2.0. It fixes a problem with drag’n’drop and comes with a new feature that makes it possible to extract info tip texts asynchronously. ShellBrowserControls 1.2.0 will make use of this feature if it is supported.

ToolTip 2.1
I’ve released a new version of the ToolTip VB6 class. Now it fully works if data execution prevention (DEP) is activated.

DateTimeControls 1.2.1
I’ve released another update of DateTimeControls. The CaretDate property of the Calendar control could return invalid dates due to a strange behavior of the native calendar control of Windows.

ShellBrowserControls 1.0.0
I’ve released version 1.0.0 of ShellBrowserControls. It fixes a number of bugs that have been found in the Release Candidate. I have not yet moved this project to Visual C++ 2010, but I will do it now. So this release will be the last one that runs on Windows 2000.
