      Join microsoft's design team? More usefully, for an application to get the Vista look, it need to include what's called a manifest. Do a search for vista, application, manifest etc, and that should help. Good luck, Iain.

        So should the OP be removing the manifest then (if he doesn't want the new look)?

          My reading was that he had a "classic" application, which was just fine when the OK and other apps matched. Now he has it on a "shiny" os, the "classic" look doesn't fit in. And I'm pretty sure that vista requires a manifest for the app before it will apply the new user controls look to it. Beyond that, it gets beyond me. I *think* a manifest is just some xml in the resources or in a similarly named (eg. myapp.exe.manifest) file nearby. Which is why I pointed him at google with the search clues in order to preserve my illusion of omniscience. Iain,
