Graphic Button

[News Central]

Hi All, I'm having a hard create a command button with a background in color
other than "ButtonFace" and a foreground text in different color other than
black. Is there a way to paint command buttons to have background in any
color and foreground text in any other color.... thanks all.

Setting the BackColor is easy... change the CommandButton's Style property
to 1-Graphical.

As for the ForeColor, that's not so easy. See these links...

Hi, It is very simple:

1- Open a project.
2- Click on Project --> Components
3- Under Controls tab, select Microsoft Forms 2.o Object Library
4- Click on Apply
5- Add a Command Button (from the new added controls) to your form and
change the backcolor and fore color properties.

Good luck,
Hajir

Thanks Rick ... I am not a fan of using FM20.DLL but just thought it would
be an easy way to have control on ForeColor. Once I had a problem with that
dll while distributing my application I got Error 7 and I stopped using it.
