Thank you very much. I tried that background attribute and it's ok. The setPosition one which I tried, it's not working. I know I may put it in the wrong position but because the form is using vizdlg. I see that link function and it can only link it to leftcenter of the whole picture. And actually only part of the table can be seen in the screen by that link function. I still cannot put it on the leftupper corner of the screen so that I can see the entire table in the screen. I just put my code here. Could you please tell me where I should put it?
In addition, the textbox is still not transparent though the table background is. Is is possible also make the textbox transparent? Since I tried that background which textbox doesn't have, could you please also tell me how I can do this?

Thank you.

Here is my code.
