I don't have for WinForms. – mzk Sep 16 '13 at 11:15

@mzk not easy for `winforms`, not clear what you want but `BackColor = Color.Transparent` is not supported by `TextBox` in `winforms`, even `Shadowed text` is hard to achieve. – King King Sep 16 '13 at 11:16

Most easy way will be to create a user control(textbox) yourself. – Max Sep 16 '13 at 12:16

You can't set the background color 'Transparent' in textbox directly. Please refer the enclosed the URL to accomplish your task : Transparency for windows forms textbox
