Thanks for the response. I tried this but i think this works only if i have
XP running on my system.
I want a XP look n feel even on the Client systems which have Win 2000
running on them

Then short answer: you'll need to do all drawing yourself. It's a lot of
work, and my guess you don't have experience with GDI+ drawing? It's not
very complicated topic but it certainly has issues. My advice: forget it if
you can't find 3rd party library that suits you.

Thanks for the reply.
Actually I have tried the drawing manuallly option as well but was able to
acheive only 60 % of my requirement and that too only for buttons
And moreover its quite time consuming
Maybe I'll search for some third party tool or dll

Affishek,
In addition be aware that using GDI extremely can make your applications
slow and because you show in this threads that it will not be on the most
modern computers, that can be a handicap.
Just my thought,

Application class is defined in System.Windows.Forms assembly.
EnableVisualStyles method was introduced in .NET 1.1. Are you using .NET
1.0?

A similar question.
If I am writing an IDTExtensibility2 Office add-in, where should I put the abovementioned code?

Then look here: http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx?id=303636
Should I also set the FlatStyle property to System even if I use the 1.1 framework and call Application.EnableVisualStyles() ? This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics
