Hi,

I have a form with a subform on. The problem I have is that the form has a background consisting of a graphical image with a gradient colour scheme. Is there anyway of making the subform transparent or blend in with the actual form?

Thanks.
 
I know you can make a tab control transparent. I haven't heard of a subform. You might be able to make the subform control object transparent, but the form itself would still have color. I don't think you can make an actual form transparent, because then you could lose it.

Can you take the graphic from the main form and make a copy, edit it to have just the part that shows behind the subform and then put that image on the subform? It would be a trick, but no one would know the difference.
