Hi Vlad and Dale, I see the same effect. I think its because its a graphical checkbox - when it is in depressed position it has a grey background. Its not the form colour coming through - its the checkbox depressed state colour. I cannot find a way around this unless chaning colour source can do it?

>>I have a form and I set the backcolor to red. Then I dropped on a checkbox on the form. Set specialeffect=1 (Plain) and set style=1 (Graphical) and the checkbox will become red. At runtime depressed it turns grey. Does anyone know why the behavior of the graphical checkbox works this way? Does anyone know how I can get it to not be transparent?
