Hi Terry,
It's pretty simple. Place this in the sub new of the start class of the
app:
MyBase.New()
Application.Ena bleVisualStyles ()
Application.DoE vents()
Then designate all checkboxes, command buttons, radio buttons flatstyle
property to 'system'.
This will allow all pc's running xp to see all of your controls with xp
styles.
HTH,

This works also...but why does the MSDN tell you to put it in Sub Main and
then run Form1 from there?

Hi Terry,
I guess they are making an assumption about your start class.

It needs to be in Sub Main() so that images show in toolbars and
tabcontrols.

Bernie,
Rather then inside the sub new, I would strongly recommend putting this in
the Sub Main of your start class as the other suggest.
Public Class MainForm
...
Public Shared Sub Main()
Application.Ena bleVisualStyles ()
Application.DoE vents()
Application.Run (New MainForm)
End Sub
End Class
For four major reasons:
1. Its not hidden in the construtor, which may be modified by the forms
designer.
2. It allows you to easily add any Global Exception Handlers at the same
time.
3. It allows you to customize the Application.Run itself (splash screens,
login dialog & such)
4. Its how most samples show it (consistency).
It has nothing really to do with "they are making an assumption about your
start class" per se. (as MainForm is going to be the start object in both
cases).
Hope this helps

Why is the "DoEvents" needed? It seems to work okay without it...or am I
missing something?

Terry,
Selected controls (toolbars for example) do not always display correctly if
you call EnableVisualSty les without the DoEvents (yes a bug).
Hope this helps
