Hi all

I discover the manifest under XP sample program works up to windows 7 but not working with windows 8. I will appreciate if any one can provide me with a manifest file that can work with windows 8 and earlier.

Thanks

Joe

When I include the manifest file in my resource file and link to my exe as suggested by Tom like below, the appearance of my dialogs change application-wide up till windows 7. But with windows 8, no effect.

#define MANIFEST_RESID 1
#define MANIFEST 24

USERDEF MANIFEST
MANIFEST_RESID = FILE "c:\ux\app\res\pps.exe.manifest"
