[RESOLVED] Opacity Problem

[BruceR]

Hopefully this is a simple one.

I created a form with a Button on it. The code behind the button is

Me.Opacity = 50

It does not work.

If I set it during design from the proporties window it displays correctly but I can't seem to control it from code.

Am I doing something wrong?

That's because opacity values ranges from 0 to 1
To have 50% opacity, you set it to 0.5 instead of 50.

Don't forget, the first port of call should be the helpfile.

Thanks Stanav.
