There is an article in MSDN, but they mentioned that there are some issues. I'm also facing them. So please advice me on how to do this? MSDN link :http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vbcon/html/vbtskCreatingNon-StandardShapedWindowsForms.asp From MSDN Note Monitors set to a color depth of greater than 24-bit can have display problems with certain parts of the form not being transparent, despite setting of the TransparencyKey property. To avoid this problem, ensure that the monitor's color depth is set to less than 24-bit in the Display control panel. When developing applications that feature this transparency, keep in mind that you will have to make your users aware of this issue. This is the issue i'm facing. Please advice. Amila
