    Is it possible to create a "transparent" textbox/richtextbox?

    So that the background can be seen through.
    I tried to change the BackColor in the property window,
    but it says it is not valid color for a textbox.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Jack

    OK, well, I cannot seem to edit the above post

    This is not really good practice, IMHO, is there really a specific need for this?
