Hi John,

You can leave BackStyle as opaque and change label backcolor to match page backcolor.

>If one goes to the Tools - Options menu in VFP and looks, for example, under the general tab the - "Warning Sound" label appears neatly over the border of the optiongroup within the page frame.

>How does one mimic this behavior in VFP8? If I set the backstyle of the label to opaque on a pageframe the back color of the label does not match the color of the pageframe, this doesn't look right. If I set the backstlye property of the label to transparent then one can see the line going through the label, this looks funny too. I'm hoping there is a very basic solution I am overlooking.
