I have created a form that has 120 transparent images on it. By that I mean
that each image is basically a line drawing with lettering on it. So for
example I have an image 2cm wide and 4cm high. The transparent part of this
image can quite happily overlap an underlying image without obliterating it.
Obvioisly if the two sets of letters cross each other, there is a bit of a
mess at the crossing point. My problem comes when I try to print the form
when this transparency seems to vanish. Plan B was to make an identical
report, but the same problem occurs. The Image.BackStyle is set to
transparent as is the .BorderStyle, but the Background of the image appears
to be white opaque. Is this a bug?
How do I get over it?
Thanks
Phil
