If you wanna round the corner of anything you want, try this:

procedure RoundCornerOf(Control: TWinControl) ;
var
   R: TRect;
   Rgn: HRGN;
begin
   with Control do
   begin
     R := ClientRect;
     rgn := CreateRoundRectRgn(R.Left, R.Top, R.Right, R.Bottom, 20, 20) ;
     Perform(EM_GETRECT, 0, lParam(@r)) ;
     InflateRect(r, - 4, - 4) ;
     Perform(EM_SETRECTNP, 0, lParam(@r)) ;
     SetWindowRgn(Handle, rgn, True) ;
     Invalidate;
   end;
end;
