the aim is not verry clearly explained...i mean how do u wish the form to fade away ??
1 - random pixels?
2 - shrinking form?

for random pixels i dont havew any idea for now but the the second alternativ u can paste the following code into a form :

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Timer1.Enabled = True
Timer1.Interval = 1
Form2.Show
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
If Form1.Height=405 And form1.Width=1680 Then
Timer1.Enabled = False
form1.visible = false
end if
Form1.Height = Form1.Height - 300
Form1.Width = Form1.Width - 300


End Sub

this code will reduce the size of form1 until it gets unreducable and then hides it
u can do the inverse to make the other form appear gradually ... i hope this was what u were looking for ..

note : create on the form a timer and a command button
