Which version of the Framework are you using? In version 1.1, there is a method called Application.EnableVisualStyles() that you can call to get XP Visual
Styles (theming) for your app (look up the MSDN documentation for this method to see how to use it). In version 1.0, you will need to go the manifest file
route. See this MSDN article for details and steps for doing this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
