I am a Mac user who needs to do a build for Win XP for an application I have written (I have someone who wants to pay me for a Win license....).

I am using version 2005 so I know I am not up to date and this client may be the driver for me to upgrade.

However, when I run my beautiful interface on Win XP Home, I see something ugly. Buttons are square boxes, tabs are even squarer and more ugly - I don't see the nice things that I normally see on Windows applications, nice rounded corners, shadow effects, etc. Is it not possible to do this in Realbasic using cross compilation? Or is it a problem with version 2005? Is there a document somewhere that us Mac people can peruse to get details of how to make nice Windows applications from our Mac Realbasic? The copy of the manual I have only lists things to think about but no pointers as to how to address them.

All thoughts/ideas/pointers appreciated

The first thing I would try is to make the windows in your app "composite" by setting the composite property to True in the IDE.
