Hello dear friends!

I am programming in VB6. There, I want a shape (an transparant oval) to be placed on top of a grid of textboxes, to indicate the textbox selected. It seems like there is no way to place the shape in front of the boxes. Can it be like this?

Bring to front, and z-order does not affect it.

Strange?

/Sebastian.

maybe i'm thinking of something different but wouldn't bringing the shape to the front hide the text box? which I can't see how you would want this.

Hi Hy!

No, my shape is a oval that is transparent in the middle (not filled), so it would be perfect to draw the focus to one special textbox. However, I have no need for this anymore, since I have choosen a completely different way to solve the task.

Thanks anyway, Sebastian.
