Hi Experts,
We got one VB3 program, that been used since VB3 first came out. Now all the pcs been upgraded to xp operating system. Here are some issues that come along, please advice. Thank you.

1 - The wording and background colour always change to multi-color.
2 - The icon at times can be viewed but at times it is all black in color.
3 - When maximise the form, it appeared to be small on screen layout.
4 - Printing (using crystal report 2.0 ) it will defaulted to Laser jet printer only.

* All the while those codes were working fine. Any solutions or advice are all welcome. Thank you.

Hi Wanzahidi,

this problem can be solved by creating manifest file for xp operating system.. the manifest file must be placed in the same path at the executable..

manifest file is used as shortcut to upgrade control to match the look & feel of xp operating system.. good luck my fren.. take care.. :)

do a little reading on XP Manifest file.. check out at the below attached link..
