Hey,
Something I've noticed is that in all my projectors the scroll bars and the
dialog boxes all look like the Win95/98 ones, even though I've got a Windows XP
system. Strange thing is, when using the stage in Director those elements all
resemble the XP versions. I was wondering if there's someway I could set the
look and feel of the projector somehow. Any ideas?

The only method I'm aware of for using the Operating System gadgets & widgets
is to use the OSControl Xtra. It does an outstanding job, is cross-platform,
and is well documented.

There may be other Xtras that do this, though.

I completely forgot about that. Thanks for mentioning it.
