I was wondering is there any option of using Stylesheets for .NET Windows controls ?
If not, which is the best way to make the UI look consistent.I need to use VS 2005 to make
the changes in the UI.

We derive usercontrols from all controls in our system — all the derived classes do is set the style from a central list of constants defining colours and fonts. Then we use these controls on our WinForms for a consistent look and feel.
If we want to change the style, we just change the list of constants.
This also allows is to perform UI tricks like setting the background colour of controls to a different colour when they are being edited.
