Hi,

I need to grey a checkbox when I don't want the user to change the value,
regardless of the value. Currently, I am disabling it and locking it so
the associated label displays normally (if I just disable it, the label
caption is etched in no color). I have used backcolor = transparent on
textboxes to achieve the desired effect, but checkboxes don't have a
backcolor property. I have tried changing the borderstyle to transparent,
and special effects to flat, but neither seem to work.

Any suggestions?

Disable the check box, but dis-associate its label so it
doesn't change its appearance.
