    Question

    Hi everyone,

    I am dragging the image control in visual basic 6 and put it in the form and tried to set it to transparent but I coud not find the right property to do this. Also I tried it with the picture control and could not. Can someone help or give a hint in how to make the image or picture control transparent (I mean you can see other buttons or texts through the image but can not click on the buttons and textboxes). Thanks for any hint or help.

    Thanks. Can you send me a gif file to see how it works. I do not have a software to create a gif file.
