How to make transparency layer for drawing above the textfield?

I would like to make a layer(panel or picturebox) for making some annotation on the textfield? I try to set the backcolor to empty or transparent, i also cannot make it transparent. Which component should i use? how i can make it become tranparent? Thanks in advance!!

One suggestion and a technique that I have used before is to use another form. On that form you can remove the boarder and set the transparent key. You can also set the Opacity to give a faded look. This technique requires a little more coding to handle but is easier then using APIs. That would be the other option; for that I think will need to get a book.
