use a picturebox and load your picture in that... Use picturebox' properties instead...

Other wise you can use toolbar where buttons can have pictures..
Else Command buttons can have pictures on them also

If you want the image to act as a button then just do the following

Rollover?

Private Sub Image1_Click()
 
MsgBox ("IMAGE JUST CLICKED"), vbExclamation
End Sub

To use image as a button do as Laserman wrote down !

but, to create it as an rollover button, try this one :

Dim blnMouseOver as Boolean

Private Sub Form Load ()

blnMouseOver = False

End Sub

Private Sub Image1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If blnMouseOver Then
Image1.Picture = App.Path & strFilename 'File of another image to roll over
End Sub

Private Sub Form_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(App.path & your_1st_image_filename)
End Sub
 
Private Sub Image1_Click()
    'put the command you want to insert when the button cliked
    'just like laserman ask you to do
End Sub
 
Private Sub Image1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    If X < Image1.Width And Y < Image1.Height Then
    Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(App.Path & your_2nd_rollover_imagefiles)  'File of another image to roll over
    End If
End Sub

Hope it helps you.
