>I am displaying a small jpeg in a standard VFP image control on a form. In vfp7 I could set BackStyle to transparent and have the image appear "masked" - with only the image showing. In vfp9 both transparent and opaque produce the image on a white background the size of the control. Is this a change in vfp9? Is there a workaround?

Sergey's advice on the gif format is right on. "Snagit" has a feature to set a gif color to transparent.
