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? Francis
