Theme not saved under Vista

   Me again...

If I run my app the theme selected by the user is not restored when the application is restarted. Again I do the usual LoadCommandBars , SaveCommandBars commands. However the theme on startup is always the blue ( CommandBarsGlobalSettings.Office2007Images is empty ) one although when I change it with the app running it correctly switches to black , silver a.s.o.

Some further things

I use Vista
It works when running inside VB ( as Adminstrator )
It does not work in the RibbonSample either ( except when running inside VB )
It does not work when running the app(s) as administrator
What have I done wrong ?

Best Regards

Peter

	Hello, Why it have to restore automatically? You change it in code manually so you have save and restore it manually.

	Thanks for the answer... Hmm ! Why is it storing when I run it under VB6 Debugger ? Why are other settings like f.e. Key Mapping a.s.o stored and the Theme not ? These are also 'manually' changed ! Peter

	OK ! Just found out that it is not stored if I leave VB and restart it... I guess the OCX is still in Memory as long as VB is not closed... Peter

	Hi, if we provide way to change some option by user - in Customize dialog / using Mouse/Keyboard we save this option in our code. If you manually change some option in your code - you have save and restore it.
