How to enable the xp theme in my application without manifest file...?

Dear All,

I am using C++ in VS2005 , I need to enable the xp theme in my application without manifest file,

I have used compiler directive like below in code

#pragma comment(linker,"/manifestdependency:\"type='win32' name='Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls' version='6.0.0.0' processorArchitecture='*' publicKeyToken='6595b64144ccf1df' language='*'\"")

It works nicely in VS 2005 and later versions,but I need alternate solution which works independent of any Visual Studio versions( Including on VS2003,VS2004).


Please help me ...

Thanks in advance,
Basawaraj Bijjaragi.
