I don't believe you can set the background of the field directly other than to a color. &nbsp;However, you should be able to make the field transparent and simply place a graphic under it on your form.<br />
<br />
Problem is that when your users are entering text, they won't be able to see the graphic. &nbsp;I'm guessing that seeing the graphic during input is what your hoping for (some sort of form filling app?). &nbsp;If so, this solution wouldn't work for you.<br />

Am I right in my assumption?<br />

Yea, that is the basic idea. I guess a picturebox with advanced text input would also work, but I'm not sure how to do that either...

Background for RichTextBox Control

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
