I'm not sure in all of this if you got the full answer. Put your VB control in a dll, import the dll into your C# project, and it will work fine. You cannot mix languages in a single project.

Thanks for all the 1 votes to my posts in your thread. Good to see you finally;

1. Realized how screwed you are in programming
2. Admitted your malicious intent
3. Rised to the occasion to univote me.
4. Realized you can't trick people by reregistering your name

Looking forward to your future failures in the programming industry,

Sorry for confusing you - I assumed you were refering to Napoleons' lack of Frenchness by refering to Barcelona. Hence the Corsica reference, that being where NB was born. Smile | :)

Do you know what, if any, action will be taken? Simply wondering out of curiosity. I would imagine that got them quite upset.

public static System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath Transparent(Image im)  
        {  
            int x;  
            int y;  
            Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(im);  
            System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath gp = new System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath();  
            Color mask = bmp.GetPixel(0, 0);  
  
            for (x = 0; x <= bmp.Width - 1; x++)  
            {  
                for (y = 0; y <= bmp.Height - 1; y++)  
                {  
                    if (!bmp.GetPixel(x, y).Equals(mask))  
                    {  
                        gp.AddRectangle(new Rectangle(x, y, 1, 1));  
                    }  
                }  
            }  
            bmp.Dispose();  
            return gp;  
  
        }

Then in your form load event handler

System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath gp = Resources.Images.Transparent(pictureBox1.Image);  
pictureBox1.Region = new System.Drawing.Region(gp);

First, don't use PictureBoxs. Next, Color.Transparent is not really Transparent as you're expecting it to be. Transparent only tells the control to take on the background properties of the control that contains it. In other words, there is no true Transparency.

Having said that, in your example, the control in the middle will NOT be visible in the transparent areas of the top control. It'll disappear behind the borders that makes up the top control window.

A better option would be to drop a Panel control on the form, resized or docked as needed, then just draw each image yourself in the Paint event of Panel control. You'll have much greater control over the transparency.

Hi guys,

How can we execute a particular piece of code on a specific date. I mean if its 15, then it will print Today is 15?

Algorithm here:

if ((Date.Now)==15)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hey, today's 15)
else
{
return;
}

Any ideas?
