DataWindow.NET - DataWindow Column Borders

I'm using DataWindow.NET 1.5.1 9004 on a Windows XP
Professional SP 2 machine with the latest Microsoft Update
patches.
The release notes indicate that change request 385532 is
corrected.
However, if I configure my computer to use a Windows XP
theme the border does not render as expected; a blue
bordered box is displayed.  If I configure my computer to
use a Windows Classic theme the border is rendered as
expected.  Is there something else I need to do to get the
datawindow object column borders to render correctly when
using a Windows XP theme?

Are you using 3D Lowered? If so, then this is expected behavior. XP
rendering has changed from the Windows 95-ish 3D Lowered that you see
in earlier versions of Windows so the DataWindow was changed to
support the XP style.

I'm not sure I understand.  With an XP theme the blue box SHOULD
appear for a Lowered border setting..  What setting do you have for
the border?

Yes I'm using 3D Lowered.  I did not realize that XP changed
the rendering behavior.  Thanks.  Does this mean that there
is noway to get a 3D lowered look when using an XP theme?

Unfortunately, no.

Actually, I think you can if you change the background color explicity
(from whatever the default 'system' color is)... at least that was
discussed at one point, I'm not sure it made it's way into the
product.
