using Officexxxx.dll for Taskbar VisualTheme

 

I'm using VB 6 and Controls v15.3.1 (Active X) For my TaskPanel I set at design time:

 

wndTaskPanel.VisualTheme = xtpTaskPanelThemeOffice2003

 

When I compile my program an run it on a different pc, the Office2003 Theme disappeard.

I guess that I need to load a Theme from a ressource dll, but I'm not sure how to do.

 

1)  I can only see Office2007.dll, Office2010.dll and Windows7.dll but no Office2003.dll. Where can i get this?

 

2) Is ist correct to load a Visual theme like this? 

Call TaskPanelGlobalSettings.ResourceImages.LoadFromFile(App.Path & "\Office2010.dll", Office2010Blue.ini")
 wndTaskPanel.VisualTheme = xtpTaskPanelThemeResource

 

The helpfile shows:

 

I can ony see the "ResourceImages" Property - there is no "ResourceThemeImages" Property!

 

I use this for setting VisualTheme (no load of any dll before)

 

The same Exe looks on different systems:

 

 

Is the Office2003 Theme still included in Version 16.xxx of TaskPanel Component?

Is there any chance to keep the "blue design" of my "Windows7" Screenshot?

 

Perfect! Setting the Global Settings was the solution!

 

I tried to do the same for the Report Control. But there seems to be different problem. I loaded icons from ressoucefile for each record and for the watermark. The same Programm looks on different systems:

 

 

Here's my code:

 

    Dim P As IPictureDisp, ax as integer
    For ax = 1 To 4                                                                     
        Set P = LoadResPicture(500 + ax, vbResBitmap)                        ' Loading Ressource 501 to 504
        FrmPanWatchdog.WndReportControl.Icons.AddBitmap P.Handle, ax, xtpImageNormal, True
    Next

 

When I change my code and load the bitmap directly, there's no problem:

 

 

Do you have an idea on this?
