Make ListView to be transparent

Hi, guys!
How can I make ListView to be transparent?
Transparency in C# seems to be a problematic part at all. It's not truly
transparency I used to in Delphi.

Thanks a lot

Unfortunately the ListView is based on the old Win32 ListView and the .NET
ListView is a loose wrapper around that.

You may be able to do the job using a lot of interop but I suspect that the
results will be less than satisfactory.

Windows Forms Tips and Tricks has an article on transparency that might
point you in the right direction.
