still need transparency help

[Walter100]

I need for the textboxes that I have attached in the zip file to have a transparent background. If someone could do this and reattach a zip file it would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

Goto the Project > References menu & check the "Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library".

There's a textbox control there which allows you to set a property to make the control transparrent.

All I need is the white outside of the Blue oval rectangles to be transparent I think you could do that with c++ but I dont have it

Walter, transparency is acheivable via API through win2000 and later....

There is no built-in Windows code for Win95,98....

If you are using these textboxes on a form... what are you trying to acheive? You can easily fake transparency by drawing a line near the edges of a textbox that have their border set to None. Perhaps if you submit a form we can have a better understanding of what effect you're after.

NO I dont actual textboxes in vb to be transparent. See I made round rectangles in paintbrush and I am going to use them in an image and then place a textbox using vb over top of the image and make the borderstyle for the textbox to zero. So I actual dont need to make a textbox transparent I just need the background of the image I created in paintbrush to be transparent the edges and stuff. I need for the white that is inside the rounded rectangles to stay white but everything outside transparent. So the zip file just has paintbrush images I need to have the background transparent for.
