anuradha,
Create your window as usual using CreateWindowEx and then add the following extended style. I have never done this myself so I have no code.

WS_EX_TRANSPARENT

Specifies that a window created with this style is to be transparent. That is, any windows that are beneath the window are not obscured by the window. A window created with this style receives WM_PAINT messages only after all sibling windows beneath it have been updated.

Hi
In the ObjAsm32 package is a project called Skin, which implements a strechable skinned window (with controls) and matching skinned dialogs. The complete source is included.

anuradha,

Do you mean transparent, or translucent (semi-transparent)? The attachment contains a simple translucent dialog demo.
