Hi Emmanuele,

thanks. Now I know that the style properties are normally modified with 
the help of a resource file (that was very important). I will try to 
implement such a file in my application because my GUI looks really ugly 
with horizontal and vertical separators.

Thanks and if you know some howtos about the mentioned topic please let 
me know.
