Hi, Windows programmers!

Do you know how a listbox should look? I'm sure, yes.
Even if it has LBS_EXTENEDSEL or LBS_MULTIPLESEL flags? Of course!
But try to look at such a listbox included into BWCC-style dialog box
and compiled by BC 3.1. You'll be surprised. You'll see that
every filled line of listbox has dark-gray background color.

Why? Is it Borland's mistake or was it planned so?

This effect can be found only if:
1. listbox included into BWCC dialog box.
2. listbox has LBS_EXTENDEDSEL or LBS_MULTIPLESEL (or LBS_OWNERDRAW?) flag
3. project compiled by BC 3.1 (uses its BWCC)

Regards,
/Alex
