Can I ask you why? :)
I most cases .net will help you achive beter look of your UI, but in the end you realize that you withdraw more time than main controls functions.

You can't combine or add any mxs control inside .net control.
To solve this you have 2 choisese:
#1 you can use standard dialog (rollout) and .net "Panel" object to represent ui
background. But all others controls like labels,buttons,textboxes need to be also .net objects.Example http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/3incampack-jumper-cam
#2 use .net "Form" in combination with .net objects.

Also you can assigne beckground color to your rollout but sometime you will get flickering over controls. I personally try to avoid this method.
