Does anyone know how I can change the color of the text inside the command button from black to white. Thanks!!!
This is a lot of **** about changing the colors, but i didnt feel like cutting it down for you to get just white. here it is:
To a form, add a control array of VB Checkbox buttons (cmdChk(0) through cmdChk(9)) and a control array of option buttons (option1(0) through option1(9)), as well as an exit button (cmdEnd). Set the Style property of all check box buttons to 1-Graphical, and add any images, if desired. Add the following code:

According to what people told me, you can NOT!
Or at least Bill Gates does not want to have people
do it with ease.
What you can do is create your own image and then
refer/place these buttons inside of your command
button or something like that.
What I did I just use the TEXT object as my command
button. It is not as pretty, but it works with colors
and highlight just similar to command buttons.
:confused:
Basically, just place a Checkbox on the form and set it's Style to Graphical. Than you have yourself a Command Button where you can change the forecolor.
Thanks for the tip. I tried and it works great!
Are sure you are not related to Bill Gates?
No, he knows me. LOL :D
I tried the check box technique, but when it's clicked, it stays pressed, so I changed the value of the checkbox back to 0, and it repeats the click_even again..any ways around this??
if check1.value = 1 then exit sub
Easy! =)
