How to change the look of a .Net apllication?

People, how can I make my applications look more like Windows XP or Office
2003 and less Classic Windows with .Net?

Thanks,
Scirious.

In vs2005, it is simply a checkbox in the project properties.
In vs2003, there is more work, you have to call
Application.EnableVisualStyles (before Application.Run). Here is a full
write up on the vs2003.
