Hi,

I'm using the office 2007 blue skin on my application. On a debug build the main window and all dialogs are skinned very nicely.

On a release build, the dialogs lose the skin effect and go back to being xp dialogs, although the main app window is still skinned.

I started this application up with the evaluation version of the toolkit and pasted it together from various samples, and have now purchased the toolkit properly.

All eval versions were removed before the install of the main toolkit.

OS win xp. VS 2008 pro trial.

Hi,

Do you wrap your release exe somehow ? Can you reproduce it with new project ?

Further info:

In the call to LoadSkin() the function CXTPSkinManager::ReadSkinData() is failing on line 564:
if(!m_pResourceFile->Open(strResourcePath, strIniFileName))

strResourcePath points to myappdir\\Office2007.cjstyles
strInitFileName is NULL

The Office2007.cjstyles and Vista.cjstyles were copied from the Bin\vc90\Styles folder.

I also copied:
Office2007Aqua.dll
Office2007Black.dll
Office2007Blue.dll
Office2007Silver.dll

from the Source\Styles folder.

This worked fine on the eval version, now even on my debug build on the actual toolkit its gone pete tong!
