vb6 windows xp style tut.

[johannes2]

hey, this is my tut. of how to make vb6 xp style
in 4 simple steps

1. open Notepad.

2. Enter this text



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity
version="1.0.0.0"
processorArchitecture="X86"
name="Microsoft.VB6.VBnetStyles"
type="win32"
/>
<description>VBnet Manifest for VB6 IDE</description>
<dependency>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity
type="win32"
name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
version="6.0.0.0"
processorArchitecture="X86"
publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"
language="*"
/>
</dependentAssembly>
</dependency>
</assembly>

Save the file as vb6.exe.manifest

3. Place the file under the same folder that has Vb6.exe. (That directory is usually c:/... .../Microsoft Visual Studio) Make SURE it is in the same folder containing VB6.exe

4. Now run vb6.exe . You will see that all styles have been replaced with XP styles.
