color of text on button

[kalicki]

I can do alot of things in VB but one thing that has evaded me is how to change the color of the text on the buttons. I need to figure out how to do it for the program i'm writing (a periodic table), and i just cant figure out how to do it.
Thanks,
Kalicki

add components:

Use the Microsoft Forms 2 controls (i think that was it)

it has a command button that the text color can be changed on.

Or use a Checkbox, set the Style to Graphical.

And since it stays checked, just uncheck it.

Private Sub Check1_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    Check1.Value = vbUnchecked
End Sub

i tried geoff_xrx's solution and it worked
Thanks to both of you,

There is also a button shipped with Sheridan 3D controls that lets you do this.
