IE Toolbar: visual style for custom windows?   
Hello,

I am developing an Internet Explorer toolbar using COM. To enable
Windows XP visual styles I added a manifest file and defined
ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED. This works for the toolbar and the toolbar
buttons. However, there is also a combobox on the toolbar, and it is
rendered in the old Windows style.

I wonder if I have to do something special so that custom windows
would also receive the new themes?

I found the answer here:

I copy&pasted the code of the CMyContext class and now it seems to
work.
