No.  BCB3 simply had no support for XP at all.  In fact, none of the BCB
versions do.  Owner-drawn controls must use XP's new uxTheme API when
drawing themselves while a theme is applied.  BCB's version of the VCL does
not support the uxTheme API at all.  So you would have to write your own
custom drawing code to make use of the API.  Or find third-party components
that already do so.  Normally, I would have directed you to the XP Theme
Manager component at http://www.delphi-gems.com, except that it does not
support BCB3.
