XP Visual Styles in 2005

[Guest]

I'm trying to set the application to use XP visual styles, but in the
properties page I tried to set it and I get the following:

Startup object must be a form when 'Enable application framework' is
checked. I have a sub main starting up the application and in there it
determines which portal the user is eligible to use. So how do I get around
this issue with having a form being my startup?

Thanks

Call 'Application.EnableVisualStyles' in your custom 'Sub Main'.
