      From MSDN: "That manifest file must be named correctly (.manifest) and must be in the same directory as the .exe file for your application to take on the correct appearance" SkyWalker

        thanks for the reply, but.. manifest file is included as a resource, not as a seperate file. Yes, i've tried using it as a seperate file, but it does not work. (plz note, I've other exes that work correctly. The problem occurs only if I use the resource in this dll) Hari Krishnan
