Does anyone know how to make windows forms applications look good? Some
kind of skin maybe.

Steve,

Your question is too generic, so to say. If you could explain in more detail
what exactly look and feel you want to give to your application, we might be
of much greater help.

Some of the most obvious options are:

a) Windows XP style
b) Skinned interface (WinAmp, Windows Media Player etc.)
c) "Flat" style (Visual Studio .NET)

P.S. Such questions best match the
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms newsgroup.

4. Question and looking for good example of Windows Service

Hi there.
I just installed VC++ 2005. I was using VC++ 6 before.
So I need to create a Windows Service. I tried to use wizard but code that 
was generated seems to be a .Net related. In fact I expected that VC++ mean 
normal VC++ just like it was in the early days. So currently I have two 
questions:
1. How to create in VS 2005 Widows Service project that will be running just 
ordinar VC++.
2. And second is there some good example of how to make a windows service.

Since I tried to search on google and response was to small. In fact I found 
very few examples of windows service using VC++ 2005. So it looks like this 
type of project is less common then just ASP.NET stuff... :-(

Thanks.
