Transparency and Images - Access 2003 Forms

[Guest]

Hi Folks,

Can any one help with a solution to enabling the use of images of circles
with transpaernet backgrounds to be displayed correctly. I am using files in
a BMP format that have a transparent background but when they display in the
form the image has a 'white' square area where it is supposed to be
transparent.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Regards,

You could use a gif and set the background to transparent.

Transparent.zip is a database containing functions to allow for the
conversion of Bitmap, Gif, Jpeg, Enhanced Metafile and Metafile to an
Enhanced Metafile format supporting Transparent backgrounds.
