Well mostly I'd like it to look like native windows controls in Vista (&
XP). It looks just plain old.

Yeap, but I'd rather not do all that just to get default windows looks,
which IMO should come out-of-the-box. In addition, I'm using TMS grid
controls which allow grouping (like in Outlook) and multi-line items,
without me having to do too much work. I'd rather use those existing
components than draw it all by myself.
