Is there any way for me to attach controls(specifically: button, textbox) to other windows, or just anywhere on the screen; for example, if i wanted to put a button on (0, 900) even if there is no form there?
sorry if the question is unclear.

You mean so its like invisible?
ummm, no, put buttons anywhere, even off the form?
He wants to place the button outside the form window.
There is no way to do so without some 'trickery'.
Just make a form with no border, no background (color = Transparent or the like) then set the form to auto-size (grow AND shrink). Fill it with your controls. Then manually set the position of the form on the screen. Voila, your stuff is now wherever you want it.
Granted; it's not exactly what you want. But it's the only real way to do it.![]()
awesome, thank you.
