CheckBox with Transparent BackColor

Hi!

I'm using VB 2005. My Windows form contains ToolStrip, and I add
CheckBox on it (to the right of the buttons). How can I set CheckBoxes
BackColor as Transparent to view ToolStrips graphic as CheckBoxes BackColor?

It's not working if I simply change property BackColor to Transparent
for CheckBox.

Thanks in advance!

I tried to make this too complex way. There seems to be possible to make
a "button" into ToolStrip, set it's DisplayStyle to Text and SetOnClick
to True, and then use Checked-property as True/False.
