Default transparent subforms

Is there some way to make my subforms transparent so that they look as though they are part of the parent form?
Thanks
Raif

On the subform control:
Special effect Flat
Border Style Transparent
On the subform itself:
Default view Single Form
Scroll bars Neither

Does this help?

Thanks for the reply, I have all those settings selected allready, except for border style I don't see an option for transparent but it is set to "none". The problem is that the background picture on the subform is out of sync with the background picture of the main form.
Thanks

Ah, well you must either remove the picture from both and have plain, same-color backgrounds; or have the same background but they'd be PATTERNS, not pictures, and make sure the patterns line up.
