      Not as simply as it is for the XP theme - that example is to make a non-.NET app running on XP use the XP theme - it's not overriding anything in the system, just setting a few flags to tell Windows how to handle the application. If you want to use an entirely different theme, then you'll either have to code it yourself (creating derived classes of all the standard controls and custom painting them - not an easy task at all!) or use something like WindowBlinds[^] that can re-skin Windows to look vastly different -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! Phoenix Paint - back from DPaint's ashes!
