Now that reminds me... I have the exact opposite problem: When using a bitmap image on a button, how do I make the bitmap transparent?
There is never transparency info in a bitmap as such, but apparently, given the right inforrmation, windows will treat the color of the pixel in the lower left corner as the "transparent" color. I know I've done this in other programming contexts. A "-style" setting, I'm guessing, but if so: which? Sorry I don't have the answer to your problem - but the two might well be related.
