VB6 XP Themes

[Sir Loin]

This isn't really VB code, and I'm sure people know this already, but you can give your VB6 IDE the WinXP theme!

Just put this code inside Notepad and save it in the same folder as VB6.exe (C:\Program Files\MS Visual Studio\VB98) as "VB6.EXE.Manifest"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity type="win32" processorArchitecture="*" version="6.0.0.0" name="mash"/>
<description>Enter your Description Here</description>
<dependency>
   <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity
           type="win32"
           name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0"
           language="*"
           processorArchitecture="*"
         publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"
      />
   </dependentAssembly>
</dependency>
</assembly>

After that is finished run VB6!


Just keep in mind that this doesn't give your projects WinXP buttons, JUST your IDE.
