But it requires to much CPU when I resize the window (and need a lot of code lines to works ) So, I want to know if their is a way to create a border style (and maybe to add it in the Form.FormBorderStyle enum) to make it easily tranparent, etc.

(i've tried using .topmost = true).
2). Is there a way to remove the 3d border style of a MDI parent form?

I am creating a Windows Application in VB.Net 2.0. The application is an FTP transfer application, where I need to display 2 panes. On the first pane, I need to display the client folder structure and on the other pane, I need to display the remote FTP server. Most of the functionality is complete, but I am stuck on 2 places.
1. I need to display a combo box on top, similar to the one we have for Windows Explorer Address bar (where we can see My Computer, Desktop, Network Places, Drives, etc.). I have searched a lot but could not find something matching my requirement other than a few 3rd party controls which I need to purchase (I am looking for something open-source).
2. I am using ListView Control to display the files list. I need to show icons for "My Computer", Network Places and desktop on the List View, which I am not able to do. Is there any way I can display these Icons and make them work exactly the way Windows Explorer does?
