Is it necessary to call InitCommonControlsEx() from BCB applications??

I posted on the microsoft.public.win32.programmer.ui newsgroups about some 
issues i was having with balloon tips and listviews and the reply i got 
suggested calling InitCommonControlsEx().  Never seen this before an never 
had a need to call it.

My problems is that my Balloon Tooltips keep disappearing after they have 
auto popped-up.  Also having issues with glyphs not being painted in 
ListViews?

Can anyone enlighten me here?
