Known issues:
When using XP manifests (application specific themes) for EXW.EXE ...
**  Buttons defined inside a Group control are rendered with a thick 
    black border.
** Groups defined inside a Group control have the wrong font size
   for their caption text.

I've tried many, many things to overcome these and I have failed. Anyone
else wants a crack at them they are welcome. I've given up. So much so
that I developed an alternate to the Windows supplied Group control. Mine
works! It's called a GroupAdv and is supplied as an optional add-on to
win32lib.

The issue with Judith's IDE and the new win32lib (Property window sometimes
does not respond) is easily fixed. Its in the IDE's include file "prop.ew".
You need to find the code in createProperties() that calls createEx(). For
each one that has "WS_CHILD" as a flag, add "WS_TABSTOP". 

For example...

  {WS_VISIBLE, WS_CHILD, WS_VSCROLL, WS_CLIPCHILDREN}

becomes 

  {WS_VISIBLE, WS_CHILD, WS_TABSTOP, WS_VSCROLL, WS_CLIPCHILDREN}
