hi .. how do i make sure that the application iam developing will look the same on other windows-systems?

iam developing now on a windows7, with .net 3.5 framework .. (VS 2008)

as an example, i have a toolbar, that i changed its rendermode to system, it looks ok on my windows7, but when i run the application on windows xp, it is different, even the onmouseover backcolor is different. ..

is there a way to make the application looks like on every windows system (talking abt xp, vista and windows 7 only), lets say like exporting the settings of all the controls with the application !? or any trick to make sure it will be always the same ?

thankss in advance
