    come on with xp

    How do I get the XP look on buttons with images on em?

    I've asked this a few times with no answers. Surely there is a way. I also want to have the XP look but I did not use the 5.0 common controls I used 6.0. Someone has got to have a solution to all of this ???

    add a manifest file to your app folder

    Create your EXE
    and in the same folder as the exe
    add a manifest file

    ex:

    MyProg.Exe
    MyProg.Manifest

    (if memory serves...that should do it...but you cant 'design' them)

    I have said this before, this does not work for MS Common Controls 6.0. Also it does not make buttons with images have the XP style.

    Anyone else?

    VB not VB.net

    Must work with MS Common Controls 6.0

    Must allow for XP look with buttons that HAVE images.

    None of those state that.
