Toggle Button?

I want to create a button on a Windows form that stays depressed when a user
clicks it (and raises if they click it again). How do I do this?

Thanks,
Ryan

You may want to use a checkbox control with 'Appearance' set to 'Button'.

Use a RadioButton. And change Appearence to button.

Though, if you really want it to stay depressed, just hurl a few
insults. That usuaully does the trick. :)

Hi, is there any way I can implement toolstrip toggle button simular to the MS Word alignment button? if one toggle button already pressed down, if user click on the "pushed down button", the other toggle button will push down and the "pushed down button" will push up.

Hi all. I have a frame with some toggle buttons in it. All is working fine, except that the user can't tell which option is selected to begin with. How do I set one of the toggle buttons to the down position at design time? (All controls are unbound). I have done some searching on TheScripts, and found a couple of cases where it was suggested to set the Down position, which is where I picked up the terminology. But couldn't seem to find...

The documentation I found in the FM20.CHM files says the button state can be determined from its "Value" property, but the property list shown in VB2005 does not have a "Value" property.

I've been looking for a Toggle Button style control and can't seem to find anything. I want to have two buttons on the screen with only one of the two being pushed down (or true). One of the two buttons must always be pushed down and when the other one is pushed down on the other becomes false. Anyway, I'm just looking to implement a basic Toggly Style Button group. Thanks.

Hello all, In access 2007, it appears you cannot put a toggle button underneath a menu id and have it show a Pressed / Not Pressed status. If you make the toggleButton ID as part of the main ribbon on a form, it will show the pressed status. Does anyone know of any workarounds? If not, what I'm trying to do is have 2 styles of a particular form, and

I would like to create a toggle button, so I chose a radio and set its apperance to button. Is seems my method always makes this .checked = false. Can somebody help me to see the error in my ways?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
