For the next 7 Days I’ll be giving 7 C# & .NET tips to make your Windows application look like it was built for Vista and Windows 7. All of these tips are used in our products (wyBuild, wyUpdate, and LimeLM) and they range from the simple one-liner, free open source controls, and to the advanced tip.
And since wyBuild, wyUpdate, and LimeLM are all compatible with Windows 2000 through Windows 7 all of these tips will be backward compatible.

Your blog is wonderful and quite useful. Keep posting the visual basic related blogposts more..
I love .net. I started using from VB5.0 with windows NT operating system. I like the way VS 6 designed. Though the recent VS 2010 is much useful with all features, I still love visual studio 6.0.
Thank you so much for a great blog post.
It’s my pleasure — I’m glad you found it useful.
