Hi,
I wrote an extension to Internet Explorer that has
some standard controls in it and tested this on XP.
My buttons look different to IEs other buttons.
I assume that IE uses common controls v6 for its
own controls but my custom DLL uses the older version.
How can I tell Windows to use v6 for the DLL?

I once wrote a manifest file for an exe file to tell Windows
to use v6 and that worked but how about DLLs?

Any ideas?

thanks,
Nick
