Hi. Does anyone know how to create one effect.
When I choose a text in combobox, a richtextbox gets a new text loaded
to it. But it is not transparent. VB.NET 2005 desn't allow me to do it.
Is any other way to have transparent textbox?

Thnks.

Thanks but unfortunatelly, this website is not going to load to my browser.
So at this moment, I don't know what is there. Would you like to give me
some suggestions, briefly.

Thanks.

I had some issues with transparency of controls in the past.... found that
the following was needed in the constructor for the form. It's been quite
some time since this particular issue was solved, ... I don't really recall
all of the details, but maybe it will give a push in the right direction.

SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor, True)
