SYMPTOMS
When you view a comment that is inserted in your Microsoft Office Visio 2007 or Microsoft Office Visio 2003 drawing after you configure a desktop theme on your Microsoft Windows XP-based computer, the vertical scroll bar that is displayed in the comment box appears different depending on the method that you use to open the comment. You experience the following symptoms:
 * When you double-click the comment tag to view the comment, the desktop theme that you configured is applied to the vertical scroll bar.
 * When you click the comment tag to view the comment, the desktop theme that you configured is not applied to the vertical scroll bar. The vertical scroll bar uses the Windows Classic theme.
