Enhanced Command Buttons

[Guest]

I am looking for an enhanced command button for my forms. The old grey ones are just that, old. Any suggestions?

You can use labels and make any color you want. One method is demonstrated
in a database on my website:

Access has nothing built-in to allow for changes in the command button
backcolor. There are some third-party tools that may help:

A shareware version of Button Painter for MS Access is available at this web
site: http://www.peterssoftware.com/bp.htm

Some simple colored button examples that can be copied into your application
are available at: http://www.peterssoftware.com/clrbtn.htm

Stephen Lebans has an example database that shows how to set a command
button back color and more: http://www.lebans.com/cmdbutton.htm

There's a nice "Color Command Buttons" download at this site:

Hope this helps,
