I think this is a bug. Because Free Pascal should allow the users to
write a single software and expect it to run on all Windows versions.


It does:

All you need to do is specify the old size in the size field.


Yes, and that is the point. Where you get the right size from? Normally you use sizeof(STRUCTURE) but this won't work for older Windows versions where you need to specify smaller size (without the new properties). Or do you know the sizes of all structures by hearth?

No. But let me ask it differently.

What would a Visual C programmer do ? He has only the current headers, so you 
are
saying that simply his programs won't run on older windowses, and that's it ?

He also will have to do some effort to make sure his apps will run on older 
windowses.
Or he ships a newer comtrl.dll with his app...

Michael.
