How can i get the form to still respond to user clicks and hoverovers with this code?

Code:

---

Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "GetWindowLongA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "SetWindowLongA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function SetLayeredWindowAttributes Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal crKey As Long, ByVal bAlpha As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long
Private Const GWL_EXSTYLE = (-20)
Private Const WS_EX_LAYERED = &H80000
Private Const LWA_COLORKEY = &H1&
Private Const LWA_ALPHA = &H2&
Public d As Long
        Dim i
        Dim doa

Private Sub Form_Load()
    BackColor = RGB(127, 127, 0) 'Unique but explicit (non-system) color.
    Form1.BackColor = BackColor
    SetWindowLong hWnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, GetWindowLong(hWnd, GWL_EXSTYLE) Or WS_EX_LAYERED
    SetLayeredWindowAttributes hWnd, BackColor, 0, LWA_COLORKEY
End Sub

this code turns the form invisible. But, it makes the mouses cursor change with the things that are behind it.. How do i get it to where the user can click on the form, and everything else when it isn't invisible?

Something like this?

Code:

---

Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "GetWindowLongA" _
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long

Private Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "SetWindowLongA" _
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long

Private Declare Function SetLayeredWindowAttributes Lib "user32" _
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal crKey As Long, ByVal bAlpha As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long

Private Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" _
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, _
ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long

Private Const GWL_EXSTYLE = (-20)
Private Const WS_EX_LAYERED = &H80000
Private Const WS_EX_TRANSPARENT As Long = &H20&
Private Const LWA_COLORKEY = &H1&
Private Const LWA_ALPHA = &H2&
Private d As Long

Const SWP_NOSIZE = &H1
Const SWP_NOMOVE = &H2
Const SWP_NOACTIVATE = &H10
Const SWP_SHOWWINDOW = &H40
Const HWND_TOPMOST = -1
Const HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
 
Dim i, doa, MyStyle As Long

Private Sub Form_Load()
    BackColor = RGB(127, 127, 0)
    Form1.BackColor = BackColor
    SetWindowLong hWnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, GetWindowLong(hWnd, GWL_EXSTYLE) - WS_EX_TRANSPARENT
    SetLayeredWindowAttributes hWnd, BackColor, 0, LWA_COLORKEY
    FormOnTop Me.hWnd, True
End Sub

Private Sub FormOnTop(hWindow As Long, bTopMost As Boolean)
  Dim wFlags As Long, placement As Long
  wFlags = SWP_NOMOVE Or SWP_NOSIZE Or SWP_SHOWWINDOW Or SWP_NOACTIVATE
  Select Case bTopMost
  Case True
    placement = HWND_TOPMOST
  Case False
    placement = HWND_NOTOPMOST
  End Select
  SetWindowPos hWindow, placement, 0, 0, 0, 0, wFlags
End Sub

It works, but, i need it to also keep the form hidden. Not show the border around it when clicked and, if there would be a way to have it have no border at all.... im thinking of making a program to where the user can do things on their screen. But, instead, they are doing it to the form....

Gr8 :)

Do remember to mark the thread resolved ;)

rofl. i just edited my post. please read it. =)

If you remove the border, the "Close" button will also go. Then how will you close it? Do you have a control on the form to close the form?

I am planning on having that on there yes. However, when i make the BorderStyle = none, it does that thing again where the mouse responds to the things underneath the form, and not on the form...

Do you not have any idea how to stop this?
