>If you are using WinNT/2000 (and I'm sure it would work in XP) you can use the SetLayeredWindowAttributes API to make the form transparent. Note: the form must be set "As Top Level" only.

>Add to the init of the form:

IF ! 'FOXTOOLS' $ SET('LIBRARY')
>	SET LIBRARY TO Home() + "FOXTOOLS.FLL"
>ENDIF

>** Store the Window Handle
>DECLARE SetWindowLong IN Win32Api INTEGER, INTEGER, INTEGER
>DECLARE SetLayeredWindowAttributes IN Win32Api INTEGER, STRING, INTEGER, INTEGER
>DECLARE GetWindowLong IN Win32Api INTEGER, INTEGER

>** You only need the following line if pre VFP7
>**THIS.HWND = _WhTohWnd(_WFindTitl(THISFORM.CAPTION))

nLevel = 75 && Can be a number between 0 and 255
>SetWindowLong(THISForm.HWND, -20, 0x00080000)
>SetLayeredWindowAttributes(THISForm.HWND, 0, nLevel, 2)
