It does everything a I needed it to do, has been debugged, etc. It a very specific type of time tracking application. But I am lost on the next step. My application is in its present form is very ugly. Looks dated, way too VB'ish. I would like to improve the gui and make it look like the apps on the sales page here. Specifically this look: http://www.realsoftware.com/realstudio/ ... 1277930705 Is that sample available so that I can see what controls where used? or is there something similar? I looked at a bunch of the sample files that came with the istall but could not locate anything like that one. It is the left side of the screen I am the most interested in. What control should I use to get those icons? how do I get the shaded toolbar at the bottom? how about the blue divider on the middle? Or is my problem that I am running XP and that is how regular controls look on newer windows? Help...

Take a look at Alex Restrepo's Library Listbox class for ideas and examples. _________________ Boredom Software Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 2 posts ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
