Command Button (is it possible to disable the 3d effect?)

[Guest_imported]

Is it possible to disable the 3d effect in a command button for a form?

I would like to use my buttons, but access applies a 3d/border effect on it.

just wondering, thanks

I don't know of any way to disable the 3D effect on the default command button in Access. You can use an ActiveX control that doesn't have the 3D effect if you can find one. You might search through the list of registered ActiveX controls by clicking "More Controls" in the toolbox. If you can't find one and want it bad enough, you could always develop your own ActiveX control and register it with Access.

Good luck,

or........use a label, which also has Click & Mouse Events associated with them

I much prefer using label events:
you can embolden, hi-lite, italisize or other visual cues without reverting to those garish buttons.

If anyone finds a way to eliminate the 3-d it would be much appreciated from this humble key-pounder!
