Hi, I have the Windows XP style enabled on my desktop.

All applications including Paint, Notepad, Codejock samples, etc use the new style buttons.

My applications are all old style with the square grey buttons.

What am I doing wrong????

I guess you have to add a manifest to your executable.

Yeah, thanks, figured it out.

Also, codejock seem to use the following code in their stdafx.h samples....

#if (_MSC_VER > 1310) // VS2005

#pragma comment(linker, "\"/manifestdependency:type='Win32' name='Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls' version='6.0.0.0' processorArchitecture='X86' publicKeyToken='6595b64144ccf1df' language='*'\"")

#endif

Nice...
