deploying xp themed app on 98 & 2000

Tom
Hi friends

my question is is it possible to export the xp theme so that even when app
is eventually deployed on win98 or 2000 the UI will be consistent to that of
XP ?

Thanks
Tom

Tom,

No, it isn't. Theming is an OS level service which is not provided on
windows 98 or 2000. You could draw all of the controls yourself to look
themed, but it would be a tremendous amount of work for such a little
benefit.

Hope this helps.
