DirectX Apps W/Alpha

[candyman]

Hello,

I have a project thats being a pain.
I have a form that I want to draw simi-transparent but I want the controls to be solid (IE Not Transparent) everything Ive found ether worked for the form but didt let me add controls (PerPixelAlpha) or seamed to work untill you moved the form.

I started looking and I think this is kinda what Im wanting, but I really dont know any other language then VB.NET.

Thanks,

Clint
