Colours

[Fat Tom]

ok I know this is a stupid question but me head is wrecking me.
how do you change the font colour of a command button to something other than black.
as far as i can see it ain't in the properties box.
What does MaskColour do?

You cant unless you use API commands

Do a search for forecolor and command and API, that should bring up soem matches.

Here's a cool demo thing IO found that doesn't even use command buttons.

You can also use other controls, that do have a forecolor property as command buttons such as option buttons or checkboxes with their style set to graphical. You could also use Pictureboxes or Image controls with some graphics added to them.
