    Its not a great article, but still. Somebody is having a problem where the form doesn't move, ie you can't drag it around your screen. The movement, and stuff like that are acheived by overriding some WndProc messages. And it works fine in XP. If it is a problem with Vista, then i'll have to shift eveything out of the WndProc override, and into 4 or so separate event handlers. Anyway, article is here: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/alphaBG.asp[^] Just download the demo, run it, and see if you can drag it around like any other window. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    My current favourite word is: PIE! I have changed my name to my regular internet alias. But don't let the 'Genius' part fool you, you don't know what 'SK' stands for. -The Undefeated

        The window moves around but unlike other windows. It takes a few seconds and then staggers across the screen.
