Command Buttons

[SteveD]

Does anyone know if you can change the format of command buttons on forms-not just resize them or change text apperance, but also change the colour of the buttons, add special effects to the buttons. I have forms with quite a few buttons on them and they doon't look very appealing!
If anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Well, from what I hear, if you really want to use Access buttons, there aren't many options.

On the other hand, you can put VBA code into the "on click" (or "mouse move" or ...) event of labels, images and lots of other form items. You can even put "invisible" boxes on the screen and make clicking there do things (wow...I'm in a testy mood this morning and wouldn't mind making a few users nuts with this one...)

Look here there is a sample database and you can use your own backgrounds.
