    CEdit - How-to/Can-I

    Is there a way to make a CEdit control TRANSPARENT? I want the background of the entire control to be transparent. Since a CEdit is derived from a CWnd, shouldn't I be able to create the edit control with WS_EX_TRANSPARENT sytle? When I try this, I still have the same old white background. Can I do what I want? If so, how? This is getting frustrating.

    Transparent only means that if it's on top of another window, the window below it will not be obscured by the transparant window...
    You COULD re-write the control, but if there's an easier way, I'm sure someone else will speak up...
