You have the complete source code of the application?

Yep

.FRM files are text files that will open in Notepad. Do a search for 'VB.CommandButton' through all the .FRM files and the command button name is immediately after that text.

For listing the controls at runtime, you need to load each form in the project. Since we dont know which all forms are there, you will need to write project specific code to call each form, and use the controls collection and forms collection to get the names of each control in the form.

For example,

Dim frm As Form
Dim ctl As Control

    Load Form1
    Load Form2
      [COLOR=green]'(Load all your forms here)[/color]

    For Each frm In Forms
        For Each ctl In frm.Controls
            If TypeOf ctl Is CommandButton Then
                MsgBox frm.Name & vbCrLf & ctl.Name
            End If
        Next ctl
    Next frm

Let me know if this works for you.
