    Form corners

    Visual Basic 2005 Express,
    In the vb2005 books tutorials, when I see the form pictures, all the
    forms has round corners (soft corners, nice and cool) but in reality when I run forms, the forms are in square type, no soft corners. Is there
    any way I can create as fancy forms with fancy corners.
    Thanks,

    Are you using classic windows theme on your comp or a normal XP theme? Also want to check that you have visual styles enabled for your projects, it is in the project properties (or something like that) for VB 2k5...

    In Project, Properties, WindowsAppliction1, Application tab, Enable XP visual properties is checked.
    I am using windows 2000 operating system.
    I look around in properties, help. I have no luck.

    Windows 2000 doesnt have visual styles, so your forms will not look like that. If you run the program in XP, you should see a difference.
