Windows XP style controls

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
in the CommandBars\DynamicPopups sample which comes with XT Toolkit Professional there is a simple CFormView based view. Running this sample under Windows XP, the contained buttons show up in Windows XP style, as well as other controls I add using the resource editor (I'm still using Visual Studio 6.0):

In my application all resource editor generated controls still have the old-fashioned look as in Windows 9x/2000.
In the sample I can't find any code which appears to have any influence on the appearence of the controls.
Can anybody tell me what I need to do to get the XP look?
Thanks for any help,
Volker
