Is there a switch to have Vista control panel and other features of Vista
resemble XP. We are being forced to Vista, but want the familiarity of XP
for our users.

Open Vista's Help and Support and type CLASSIC
in the Search box. The relevant information will
magically appear.

David,

At first I changed everything that I could to look like XP, but during
moments when I had the time, I slowly changed the look back to Vista.
Overtime, the look and menus of Vista is actually more efficient than XP.

I knw what I said will be debated, but I find myself spending 90% of my time
on my Vista machines than my XP's.
