GUI colors changes on different machines

I am using visual studio 2005 and created a basic windows forum. However, when I try to run the application on a different machine other then my development machine, the GUI colors change. Both machines have the same operating systems. Any idea why this might be happening?

Thanks

Are the different machines using different Windows themes?

Yes they are. I also checked and this is the reason. Is there anyway around that or do I just have to make sure they are the same theme?

You can explicitly set the colors on your form, but certain elements will still take on the theme's color (things like the title bar, the color of the control boxes on the title bar... menus, etc.)

Yup. That is what is happening.
