Unfortunately, it is impossible to force to support XP themed controls from Mscomctl.ocx, for this file at all does not use Comctl32.dll, and almost all Functionality Comctl32.dll inside Itself. There are one exit to use Comctl32.ocx instead of Mscomctl.ocx
There's never enough time to do it right, but always enough time to do it again.
