Re: XP themed controls, how to disable them for a library ?
I don't know of any way to get XP themed controls on part of your
application. I'm surprised the Objective Grid doesn't work with these
though. I haven't used Objective Grid for many years, but their site still
seems to be active: http://www.roguewave.com/stingray/stingray.cfm. Perhaps
someone there could give you more insight.

Hi,
I have this MFC application that uses an old library containing some
controls (stingray objective grid)
The application is a non unicode application.
I recently tried to have windows xp themed controls by embedding a
manifest, I tried it normally as with the ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED flag
as described on MSDN.
All seems fine, except the controls from the stingray library which
contain controls derived from standard windows controls (CEdit, etc).
For instance clicking on a textbox like control cause japanese and
nonprintable charachters to appear in the textbox.
Rather than trying to fix this library, is there a way to force this
library to use the old controls (from user32.dll)
while have themed controls in the rest of my application ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Kind regards,
Michael Verschaeve
