Change Color of command button, textbox, comboboxes

[JT Kent]

Hello All,
i wish to change the color of command buttons from the traditional gray color to another color like black or deep blue.

I also want to change the color of disabled textboxes and comboboxes as i explained above.

How can i achieve this?
Thanks

Sorry, but command buttons are controls by Windows Themes, not the Access program. It might be possible to change them via a Windows API but you'd probably have your users mad at you because any change you would make would affect ALL of their command buttons in EVERY program.

And disabled is set via WINDOWS. Not the program - so again - not possible.

But on a side note you could use labels or images as command buttons (images will bloat things so be careful). You can use the click event and mouse move for example to have different images or label move enough to make it look like it is being pressed.
