Hi Alex

I tried it out and it worked just fine in VFP 7.0. I skinned my application's About dialog for a little surprise for the user. I stored all the graphic etc. in a separate folder and put the path in the skinname property and it worked just like a charm.

I'm sure you can match whatever background apple is using. With regard to the tabs I saw where someone offered a special activeX control. I don't know what it looked like.
