Bershama,
What do you mean by bnt?

Do you mean button?

Set the Control.Region property of your button to the shape you want. You
can use a GraphicsPath object to create the region.

I normally put the following code in both the constructor & the Resize event
(a subroutine called from both).

For an round button try something like:
m_path = New System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath()
m_path.AddEllipse(me.ClientRectangle)
Me.Region = New System.Draing.Region(m_path)

Then as William suggested you can use a PathGradientBrush to paint it.

Hope this helps
Jay
