    Custom Buttons in VB?

    Well, I'm not actually wanting to make my own control, but I can't seem to find any buttons on the web for media controls. I've tried to make my own before, but with no luck. I need some preferably round buttons the have the "Play, stop, Pause, etc." Icons on them. If anyone can give me a link or any tips it is appreciated. I did a search on google, and couldn't find anything useful (amazingly!).

    do an internet search for "icons". I have previously found approximately 16 zillion of them out there and there are bound to be some that look like what you want.

    make your own. the font Marlett will have many of those 'wingdings' pictures like play and pause.

    First, set your button's font to "WebDings"

    Now, use the following code for your buttons:

    3 = Back (3)
    4 = Play (4)
    7 = Rewind (7)
    8 = Fast Forward (8)
    9 = Beginning (9)
    : = End (:)
    ; = Pause (;)
    < = Stop(<)
    = = Record (=)

    W = Speaker Left (W)
    X = Speaker Right (X)
    q = Replay (q)

    Check out www.planetsourcecode.com and do a search in the vb section on Buttons. Amazing accumulation of them available. There's one out of france which is tops in my opinion, naturally l have lost the control myself and don't have a url to point you at...
