Problem caused by:
There is a bug in MATLAB 7.0 (R14) in the way that GUIDE handles nonstandard Windows XP color schemes. (funny isn't it?)

Solution:
Use standard Windows XP theme (blue, green, silver or classic theme). (another funny solution).


This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3)
