That was true prior to Windows XP. However, if you use XP style themes, then
all controls are taken from the common control dll. I haven't done any
programming explicitly for Vista, but I am guessing that something similar
applies there too.

A common mistake of experienced programmers who are new to Windows is to
apply common sense inappropriately. They must learn to apply Windows sense
instead.
