A small piece of code to share

Just wanted to share a small piece of code that i found. I had started a thread asking about how to prevent some controls from taking XP styles when using manifest files. But i can't find that thread. But anyway i got the solution. Here it is: (In this example i use a scrollbar)


Option Explicit
Private Declare Function DeactivateWindowTheme Lib "uxtheme" _
Alias "SetWindowTheme" ( _
ByVal hWnd As Long, _
Optional ByRef pszSubAppName As String = " ", _
Optional ByRef pszSubIdList As String = " ") _
As Integer

Private Sub Form_Load()
DeactivateWindowTheme VScroll1.hWnd
End Sub

Oops I've posted this in the wrong place. Can any moderators please move it to the VB6 section?

The VB6 forum is for questions, code snippets belong in the CodeBank forums - so I have moved it to the CodeBank-VB6 forum.

I recommend changing the thread title (click "Edit" in the first post, then "Go Advanced") to something which describes what the code does... perhaps "prevent controls from using styles while using manifest files"
