Form Fade in/out

Hi
I have a program with an introductory splash screen and a program close
screen. Each form appears ok but is there any way to apply a fade in/out
effect to each form? (Using VB6)

Yes you can, but is the effort going to be worth the trouble?

Some OS support it better than others, so you'll have to decide
what OS's you will support, and then decide what methods to
use to make it happen. Its a breeze on Win2K or later, but its a
bear on older technologies....

W2K, XP:

It only needs to work on Win XP so I'll give it a try, thanx!
