have the availability to have couloured buttons for use on forms. I use
another way at the moment to do it but it is very time consuming.

There are some third-part alternatives. Stephen Lebans' site has one:

Here is another I have come across:

I have not used either one, but I have seen recommendations for both. I
used to use the click event for labels and graphics (special effect set to
Raised), along with Mouse Down and Mouse Up events to change the Special
Effect to Sunken, then back to Raised. However, that is a lot of extra
work. I have found that I can get close enough for my purposes by placing a
picture on a command button. A web search should lead you to a number of
free command button graphics.
