I was looking around but with no success. I published an application hosted as a RemoteApp on Windows Server 2008 (not R2). I have managed to turn Vista theme on the server itself but when run hosted application on the XP SP3 machine theme doesn't appear and the application uses standard Win 2008 Server theme.
When RDC to the server (using standard mstsc command) theme is enabled.
Is there some way to enable this theme within the application published by RemoteApp?

I doubt you will find something. The whole reason for a RemoteApp is that it feels like a native app running on the local machine. If this app then displays a Vista theme on XP, it is no longer behaving like all other native XP apps but looks different. Bad thing.
Also, I am not totally sure but I would guess that the Window decorations are actually done by the local Windows machine, not the remote server, a little bit like X11 does this.
