Hi,
I believe that you are looking for application.enablevisualstyles.
Unfortunately that doesnt do much for the treeview control. You might need
to use a third party control to see much of a difference.

I am using the Winforms Treeview right out of the toolbox with all the
default settings. It looks very boring.
What can I do to dress it up and make it look at least kind of cool?
I remember hearing one time that one line of code would give it a Windows XP
look and feel. But I can't remember what that was.
I would like to give it some depth or 3D effect with just a little bit of
system color scheme behind the node boxes.
Thank you for any ideas. -hazz
