Command button with text and icon

[Davids]

Hi all...

It's possible to create a command button with text and icon in a access
form?
Thanx in advance...

no. i think your are stuck with text or picture but not
both.

It's one or the other, unless you include the text as part of the bitmap.

The ControlTipText is a good way of providing a text clue about what the
button does.

Here are a couple of links that may help, although maybe
not directly:
www.lebans.com/cmdbutton.htm
www.peterssoftware.com/clrbtn.htm

Something I sometimes do is to use a picture's Click event
to emulate command button behavior. This is OK as long as
all you need to do is click or double click the button.
Set the picture's Click event to do whatever you want the
command button to do. Set the picture's special effect
property to Raised. In the Mouse Down event use:
Me.cmdAllReviews.SpecialEffect = 2
In the Mouse Up event, use:
Me.cmdAllReviews.SpecialEffect = 0
If you can create a picture with the appearance you need,
you can use this trick. It also works on stand-alone
labels.
