Form Borders

[Gene]

Is there anyway around being stuck with the border color of the currently
selected color theme in XP?

I'm sure I could use the FormBorderStyle=None and then try to figure out how
to draw it but I'm hoping there's a MUCH simpler way. Any help is much
appreciated

You will have to draw the border yourself.

Any ideas as to how I can do that? I've wasted a couple days playing around
with the Drawing class to no avail. I have searched all over and can find
nothing on this. Any help is appreciated

Inherit the Form class, override the onPaint method I believe.

then do your drawing.
