	I had the same issue. No help from Xtreme. My solution: if grid, tabs, etc. were place on same form as SkinFramework OCX (even not visible) and then I apply the skin, then subsequent forms work fine. If these 'problem' controls are not 'in memory' when I apply the skin framework (i.e. forms are not in memory yet), then they malfunction - grid scrollbars don't work, tabs don't skin, etc.

	We had the same problem. We solved the problem by adding invisible dummy versions of each affected control to the first form the skin was applied to. It seems that a sample control needs to be loaded in memory prior to applying the skin. We had this problem with VB treeview, MSHFlexGrid, Navigation Pane, date picket, and Sheridan Tab Controls. This fixed the problem on Windows 7 machines.
