Manifest Doesn't Work With Common Controls 6.0 ListView

[abazabam]

How come the Windows XP Manifest doesn't work with the "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)"'s ListView control. Well, at least I don't think it works because the column headers don't look like the "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 5.0 (SP2)"'s ListView control when I use the manifest. Am I using the manifest wrong? Thanks

I thinkg the XP Manifest have no effect on List View's except to the schorall Bars.

It does on the column headers of the "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 5.0 (SP2)"'s ListView

XP Visual Styles came out before Windows Common Controls 6 was final so the manifest will not work with it.

The only way to get it to apply the xp style is to use a third party control or subclass the listview and handle all the drawing yourself.

Do Microsoft Windows Common Controls 5.0 (SP2) List view support Check Boxes? i did not see where to enable it.

So, should I use the "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 5.0 (SP2)"'s ListView control? Are there any disadvantages of it? Is there any reason why I would use the "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)"'s ListView control?

5 supports XP stlyes better but has allot less functionality. 6 has more features and support but no xp styles. Its a decision that should be based upon each app.
