How can I make a transparent or solid round form, without caption and border?

Answer:

This is a complete example of how to make a round form. Do not forget to create a 
TButton to close the window
   
1   unit Unit1;
2   
3   interface
4   
5   uses
6     Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Classes, Graphics, Controls,
7     Forms, Dialogs, ExtCtrls, Buttons, StdCtrls;
8   
9   type
10    TForm1 = class(TForm)
11      Button1: TButton;
12      procedure FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
13      procedure Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
14    private
15      { Private-Deklarationen}
16      procedure CreateParams(var Params: TCreateParams); override;
17    public
18      { Public-Deklarationen}
19    end;
20  
21  var
22    Form1: TForm1;
23  
24  implementation
25  
26  {$R *.DFM}
27  
28  { TForm1 }
29  
30  procedure TForm1.CreateParams(var Params: TCreateParams);
31  begin
32    inherited CreateParams(Params);
33  
34    {Remove caption and border}
35    Params.Style := Params.Style or ws_popup xor ws_dlgframe;
36  end;
37  
38  procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
39  var
40    FormRgn: hRgn;
41  begin
42    {clear form}
43    Form1.Brush.Style := bsSolid; //bsclear;
44    {make form round}
45    GetWindowRgn(Form1.Handle, FormRgn);
46  
47    { delete the old object }
48    DeleteObject(FormRgn);
49    { make the form rectangular }
50    Form1.Height := 500;
51    Form1.Width := Form1.Height;
52    { create the round form }
53    FormRgn := CreateRoundRectRgn(1, 1, Form1.Width - 1,
54      Form1.height - 1, Form1.width, Form1.height);
55  
56    { set the new round window }
57    SetWindowRgn(Form1.Handle, FormRgn, TRUE);
58  end;
59  
60  procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
61  begin
