I'm trying with this code:

void __fastcall TForm1::Button6Click(TObject *Sender)
{
   const CS_DROPSHADOW = 0x020000;
   SetClassLong(Form1->Handle,GCL_STYLE, GetClassLong(Handle, GCL_STYLE) |
CS_DROPSHADOW) ;
   SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETDROPSHADOW, NULL, true, NULL);

      // Ask the window and its children to repaint
   RedrawWindow(Handle, NULL, NULL, RDW_ERASE | RDW_INVALIDATE | RDW_FRAME |
RDW_ALLCHILDREN);
}
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

but I've an error:

Undefinited symbol 'SPI_SETDROPSHADOW'

I've included "Windows.h" too
