border on buttons

[charlesmac]

Hello,

I have tried to figure out the border on command buttons so they are not so ordinary.

What is the property to put the border on a command button>?

There is No property in VFP that will put a border around a command button, Themes will put a golden border inside... But you can create your own.

Put a shape around the button, send to back, set its Visible property to .f.

Command Button:
MouseEnter()
thisform.shape1.visible = .t.
MouseLeave
thisform.shape1.visible = .f.

In addition to adding a shape around the button, you could put a picture on it, change its color, etc., to make a button less ordinary.

Also, check out these FAQs:
faq184-3837
faq184-3534

Or you can create a class of your own using graphics and make the button look any way you want.

If you use a Command Group, you get a border. Doesn't make much sense to do it but, if you use a command group with one button, you have a border property.
