Skinning Windowless Controls

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

Hello,   
I have a legacy VB6 program I am trying to skin that has a lot of windowless controls.  

Does anyone have suggestions on how to do this safely without introducing defects?  Is the only option to convert each windowless control to its windowed equivalent, or is it possible to set Windowless to False at a parent level to force window handles?  

My main concern is that we'd break some of the event handling and it wouldn't get caught in regression.

Thanks!
