How is it possible that Microsoft didn’t introduce PBM_GETBKCOLOR/PBM_GETBARCOLOR until Windows Vista? I mean, I can’t imagine it! The progress bar messages PBM_SETBKCOLOR and PBM_SETBARCOLOR are supported in Windows 95+, but it took them until Vista to develop PBM_GETBKCOLOR and PBM_GETBARCOLOR??!! How do failures like that go overlooked for such a long period of time?
