VB 6 controls looks like .NET

I discovered a technique on how to make your buttons in Visual Basic 6 into XP buttons... Just copy this code in notepad then save it as VB6.exe.manifest then copy it to the VB Directory.

You can rename it with your vb application (i.e FFEMS.exe.manifest) and copy it to your applications directory and take a XP look. version="1.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="X86" name="Microsoft.VB6.VBnetStyles" type="win32" /> VBnet Manifest for VB6 IDE type="win32" name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="X86" publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df" language="*" />

This error does not occur when logged on to the PC as the Windows Administrator. The error appears more frequently when the users attempt to start multiple Client Access sessions."
