The System.Windows.Forms.VisualStyles namespace allows rendering of various Visual Style elements, which sometimes can be cumbersome if you have alot of elements to work with or just want to keep the code to a minimal (or are on the design team and not the code team). Or you can get the freeware .NET component to place VisualStyleElement parts in the IDE forms designer using the VisualStyleRenderer .NET control. You can
