I meant "a normal Windows 3.1 app" to mean "a non-OWL 16-bit Windows
app".

So your answer then is that this Windows 95-like control support is 
an "OWL thing" and I can't use it generically in any 16-bit program?
OWL must be used to access the emulation.

In any case, has Borland gotten the *actual* 16-bit COMMCTRL.DLL (the
one that comes with Windows 95) to work under Windows 3.1, or is this
emulation purely just that:  code, totally from Borland, that creates
controls that look like Windows 95.
