XP Styles in windows 2000

[Rohith]

How do i get XP styles or themes for controls in my Windows forms or controls
like Tabpage etc.. I am using Windows 2000 operating system. I need the XP
look and feel when i run my application in Win 2000. Is it possible in .NET
2.0 framework.

Hello Rohith,

I rekon it's not possible, because Theme API is a part of operation system,
not the .net framework
What you can do it's just create smth similiar, by manual using GDI+

Hi Michael,

Are there any third party controls or tools that provide this functionality?
