Formulario Transparente Visual Basic

[mesna]

Como puedo hacer que un formulario sea transparente pero ke los controlos que contengan sean no lo sean

[Mickel]

Recuerdo haber visto ese truco en http://guille.costasol.net

Muchas gracias

Este codigo funciona solo si el BorderStyle del form es 0... En un modulo:
