Hi, I'd like to use the new XP visual styles and read MSDN on this. Thus I know I have to prepare a xml manifest and bind this into my sources (shortly speaking). When using latest microsoft tools this will be no problem. Unfortunately I am programming in Lisp. So my question is: Is there an easier (trick) to use comctl32.dll version 6 without having to patch my commercial lisp interpreter/runtime environment? Could I perhaps write a 'helper' DLL? Rem: I want to use those flashy new buttons. Andreas Back to top Sumit Rajan Guest Posted: Tue Jun 29, 2004 8:46 am    Post subject: Re: fooling XP with visual styles?

Andreas Wow, that has to be the most off-topic question I've seen here yet! :-) -Howard Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         C++Talk.NET Forum Index -> C++ language (comp.lang.c++) All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum C/C++----------------C LanguageC Language (Moderated)C++ Language (Moderated)C++ language (comp.lang.c++)C++ language, library and standards Non-English C/C++ Newsgroups----------------C++ (German)C++ (French)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
