Modifying Command Button Colors

[Spec01]

Hey Everyone,

I have been trying to figure out how to change the color of my command buttons, can't seem to find a way though. If anyone knows how I could go about doing this it would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

You can't change the color of a Access command button..

You can try Microsoft forms command button If you are not going to distribute the db. You might need to know the rules of distributing it from MS web site.
to insert MS Forms command button
INSERT > ACTIVEX CONTROLS > MICROSOFT FORMS COMMAND BUTTON

Alright, Well thanks for the advice. Now I don't have to waste my time looking for a way to change the appearance.

Combination WinXp and Access 2003 will give you XP Style command buttons. You need to enable it from
TOOLS > OPTIONS > FORMS/REPORTS

There is a sneaky way to "color" command buttons. Lay the transparent command button over a colored box.
