Default How can I make an application transparent?

Can anyone help me with an ideea how can I find a code that makes aplications
transparent?I need it at work and I m not allouded to install any kind of
software (like Glass2k) therefore I'm thinking of a VB Script to run under
Excel.
I'm using a personalized application that I need to put on top of
maps.google.com to draw streets.
I'll appreciate any kind of suggestion!

Transparency requires OS API calls at the very least. If you're not
employed as a systems programmer, why would you believe your employer
would be any happier with you trying to write your own lowish-level
code than they would be if you installed nonstandard software someone
else wrote?

If you haven't programmed with a true compiled language, this would be
a really bad idea.
