    hmm what do you mean exactly?
    There are some controls, which I've never used myself, that give you a better look-and-feel than the default .NET ones: http://www.skybound.ca/developer/vis...s/default.aspx
    I heard that from jmchchichc...y (I cant remember the spelling of his username)

    umm other than that, if you have VS.NET 2003 visual styles are enabled by default, so setting the FlatStyle property of a control to System would make it use the XP visual styles. For example if you have a button, you should change its FlatStyle property to System. You need to do this for any control that has the FlatStyle property
