>>I was messing around with opacity and transparency features on one of my maintenance forms and somehow I've fouled up my mmMainAppForm. I accidently set the AllowTransparency field to true through the UI somehow and the only way to correct it was set it in code to false because I could not find that property anymore in the UI.

You may want to create a new MM .NET Windows Forms app and compare the settings in that form to the form that's giving you problems.
