It still has to be treated like a normal button in that ModalDialog() will return the ID of that button if the mouse is clicked in its rectangle. It has to let anything behind it in the dialog box "show through"; i.e. if some words drawn with DrawString() are behind the invisible button they have to show through. Thanks very much.
