Are you using .NET? If so, just set the transparency color as the color of your form.

Form.TransparencyKey Property

No he is using VB 6.0, and to make it transparent you can use this module I found. Open it into your Project and use it like this:

Code:
MakeTransparent Me.hwnd, 100
Where Me.hwnd is the form hwnd and 100 is the value of transparency.

How did you know he was using VB 6 and not .NET?
