Is it possible to set another visual style only for my application [modified]
-
Can I use SetWindowTheme to set another set of visual style exclusively for my application ? For example, My system use window7 style. But I want my application to use WindowXP or a custom style.

No. You can't have application specific themes. If you need that sort of functionality, look at custom UI frameworks. The recent versions of MFC have skinned controls, which offer different visual styles (Office 2007, VS2008 etc.) Also third party MFC control vendors like BCGSoft or Codejock offer a lot of skinnable controls.
