In C# environment, setting a checkbox's CheckState property to Indeterminate displays a "green square" inside the checkbox.

In VB environment, this displays as a "grayed out check" (which is less intuitive, even for "dummy" users).

How do i make Indeterminate state look like a "green square" in VB.NET ?

Btw, i am using VS2008, Winforms 2.0.

(Btw2: I tried to create two tags CheckState Indeterminate, which is more appropriate to my question, but disallowed by StackOverflow due to points!)
