In addition to the other comments. Don't use that bleeping
thing, it will cause you no end of versioning problems that
you will little or no control over. There are alternatives
to just about all the features of that thing that are more
reliable and easier to distribute. For exapmle, if you want
to provide a file browse capabilty, then see

Hi Marsh,
agree with you about file browse, better to use API, but for win common
controls - i do not see many alternatives. i use it for many years in
several applications, and if you follow certain rules - it works fine

Hey, Alex, I think I put my foot in my mouth here. I was
unaware that commctl32 was different from comctl32 and was
discussing the latter. I have no experience with commctl32
and am not qualified to comment on it.

Checking MSDN, it looks like commctl32 is a new, improved
version that is supposed to avoid the DLL Hell issues of
comctl32. Should I conclude from your comments that this is
indeed the case?

Hi Marsh,
now i am get confused )
i thought we are talking about comctl32
now it appear that we are talking about coMMctl32
in MSDN i have found only commctl32.dll, perhaps i have an old one here.
have to check later if i can find more online.
