Transparent form for Delphi

I got the question if I could make one of my applications transparent. Well, I know it's possible but I have no clue on how to do it. I tried a lot of different examples on the web but none of them seemed to work with my Delphi 5 application. They also simply ignored the panel that I had on the form. Then I stumbled upon this link:

Simple code and real easy to implement. The example was well written and the code got the job done. Thanks Serhiy for it! Apparantly he has a page called the Delphi beacon at

I think I will spend a few more minutes on his page and see what he is doing. :)
