Some of my controls look different when running vs. when in design mode. For
example, a button looks rounded and has a nice shinny look when I am looking
at it in the design mode, however when I run it through the IDE it looks like
a standard VB6 button. The same with my tabs. Any ideas?

Which version of VS are you using? If you are using VS 2005, did you enable
visual styles in the project's application framework settings? Are visual
styles enabled in Windows?
