I noticed the COMCtrl imagelist (v5) did not fully render the shadowing that I see in my explorer (filefolder). I assumed it was a different image file or (perhaps) that my image size did not correspond with XP's imagesize. But the image was different than the one rendered by V6.

Thankyou for giving the time to bring this issue to our attention. For months, many of us have been asking how and when - and finally, you come up with the answer. The alternatives were commandbutton lookalikes. But CommandButtons do not have a mixed state and CommandButtonds force a lostfocus event. Discriminationg *g* developers understand the value of OCX and themes, and it's always good to know people are doing the hard footwork to get us there!

It's also good to see "pure" VFP interface articles in RapoZine. I have been delaying my subscription - but now, perhaps, it's time to break the piggey bank and send Michel the quarters I was saving for my weekend at the beach!:-)
