This is a standard MessageBox displayed in the XTP CustomizeDlg sample program:  This a standard MessageBox from somewhere else:  As you can see the customizedlg sample is blessed with the stylish buttons in all its windows. My question is: How can I set the buttons in my application to have these nice buttons as well (and not the ugly buttons in the 2nd image)? |

Yeah thanks it works great I added a manifest file to allow xp looks on XP. Its a simple procedure - I'll write it here if any1 is interested: 1. create a new xml manifest file with the following content: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
2. insert a new Imported resource (the xml file from step 1) to the application - - the resource type should be 24 -the reesource id is 1 Thats it
