How To Make VB.Net Form Invisible

I am using VB.Net and I'd like to ask how could I make my form invisible while the other objects on it are visible? When I set the form's opacity property into 0%, the objects on it are affected. Thanks in advance :))

You can use the TransparencyKey Property of the form. You can set the forms back color, then set that as the transparency key and only the back color will become transparent. It will make the form transparent except the controls.

Like this:

Public Sub InitializeMyForm()
    BackColor = Color.Red
    ' Make the background color of form display transparently.
    TransparencyKey = BackColor
End Sub 'InitializeMyForm

Hope this helps.
