BUG: C# 2008 Express changed the tooltip color in all Vista's wind

[=?Utf-8?B?QmlsbEQ=?=]

I have installed C# 2008 Express edition in Windows Vista, and I
found this huge bug:
the tooltip shown to the up corner of a window has the old yellow style
color.
Minimize, Maximize, Close buttons show a yellow tooltip in Explorer and all
other programs; instead buttons, system tray icons and other UI elements show
Vista grey style tooltip.
It seems VS2008 Express has changed some Vista shell dll files.

Make sure your main program code (usually program.cs) has a line:

Application.Ena bleVisualStyles ();

Sorry. I understand now, and it is the same for me. Are you sure it was
different prior to installing C# Express 2008?

This the the Vista's default behavior, VS2008 has nothing to do with this, I
have this on Vista systems without VS200X installed..

I found that when I went to .net 3 that Windows Vistas mouseoevr
shades the button a very light color.
This was a disaster as my text was all white !
I just recoloured my text black and everything is fine now.

If your program uses key presses beware of the openfiledialog as this
doesnt return focus to the main windows when it closes !

After I posted, I looked on my wife's computer, and it behaves the same. C#,
express or otherwise, is that last thing she needs on her computer...
