>Is there a way to create XP look and feel for all common form controls using Win'2000 or Win'98?

The only way to really do something like this is to use 'skins' on each of the 'windows'. In order to do this, each control needs to have a 'windows handle'. The problem you're going to have is that while VFP forms are true windows, the controls themselves are not. About the only thing you could do is not use any VFP controls and use all activex's instead.
I consider this another result of Microsoft's blunder of not allowing VFP to use the .net framework.
