Resolved the issue with the help from AC support.

I did not know that one either has to use an internal skin or include the skin in its compile time directory with the compiled exe.

I thought the skin is compiled into the exe whether one use an internal skin or not. I also thought that the internal skin property is used only to store skins such that one can change them at run-time.

I resolved the issue by using an internal skin.

My manifest file looks the same. I don't have Vista to test it with.

Sorry, I'm using BCB6 which does not have that option. I would guess that by enabling the “Use Runtime Themes” setting is very similar to using the XP manifest.

Even though the XP manifest is used to generate XP look and feel in Win XP, I was hoping it could somehow enable runtime themes for Win7.

So I've included the XP manifest with the hope that it will enable the runtime theme in Win7, but it made no difference and my skin is still not working in Win 7.

Any ideas? Am I missing a setting?
