I insalled Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and i expected form desing like on Vista or Windows XP 7, but design is like on Visual Studio 2005. I'm using Windows XP SP2 2002 version. Is there any theme or something else, I wan't to have "proffesional design" like on Vista or Windows XP. Thanks!
What do you mean by form design like on Vista? And what is Windows XP 7? Windows 7? or Windows XP?
Do you mean that you don't see any aero (glass titlebar) features in the designer? Visual Studio doesn't support that in the designer. But what does it matter?
Visual Studio 2008 will not suddenly make your applications look like Vista or Windows 7 (nor for that matter will VS 2010).
Applications that you write in Visual Studio are rendered by the operating system, so unless you take care of drawing everything yourself all of your dialogs will appear in Windows XP style when run on Windows XP, or in Vista style when run on Vista etc.
I want to have this window:

So, is there any theme or somethnig else?
You want to have that window in XP, or at least in any theme that does not have Aero effects enabled? I'm not going to say it's impossible, but it will at least be very hard and will probably never look much like the real thing. Why do you want this though? Anyone who is running the Aero theme will see all your windows like that automatically, and anyone who is not might not be running it because they don't like it, so forcing them to use it is not very thoughtful...
Yes, you are right. But is there any solution to set up this theme on my computer just in program in VS2005?
I'm lost now. Whether you have VS2005 or VS2008 or VS2010, the forms you create with it will look just like any other form on your current theme.
Or do you mean in the designer (in which case, why didn't you answer that when I asked you the first time?)..? In that case, again, that's not possible, and it doesn't matter at all because how your form titlebar looks in the designer has no effect on how it looks when running.
Yes, you're right. Thanks!
