====================
Hi,

I have a form with some controls that are bound to required fields in the
table. I'd chosen the fill/back color for these controls as Yellow to
indicate that they are required fields.

Now, I've made one of these fields not-required (in the table). and have
changed the fill/back color to trasnparent. When I view the form, the control
is transparent, but when it gets the focus and the cursor is in the control,
it gets high-lighted with yellow color. As soon as the cursor is out, it goes
back to being transparent. I'd like the control to remain transparent when
the cursor is placed in it. I'm unable to figure out the reason for this
weird behavior, and will appreciate any help.

Thanks!

You can use the "On Got Focus" Event and set the
back color in the code to be the color that is behind it.
