[AccessD] A2K/03/XP: Make a form "dissolve" into view?

OK, here's a weird one.

I'm doing fit and polish work on one of my projects.  I thought of
something that might be fun to code, seeing as I'm ahead of schedule.


It would be a nice bit of eye candy to have the splash screen
dissolve or fade into view instead of just popping open as Access/VB
forms tend to do.  In essence, the form would open with 100%
transparency and incrementally decrease transparency until it was a
solid form.  The whole fade (actually, it's the opposite of fade,
what do you call that?) should only take a second or two.  

Has anyone ever done anything like this in Access?  I've seen VB apps
that do this, but never an app I was able to get the source to, so I
don't even know where to start.
