Is it possible to rotate FP 2003 Interactive Buttons? I like the tab buttons but would like the rounded corners to be down instead of up.

Also, can I use my own generated images as interactive buttons?

Only as described below.

This, to my mind, is an unfortunate omission.

For each custom picture you want to use, you need to add
six pictures to the following folder:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\BUTTONS

The six pictures are GIF and PNG versions of the button in
three states: normal, hover, and clicked.

Once the six pictures are in place, you must modify an XML
file at

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\1033\Buttons11
\IBUTTON.XML

Open this file in any text editor, copy and paste an
existing <ibutton> ... </ibutton> block, and then modify
the pasted block so it refers to your six new pictures.

Ugh.

If someone's looking for a great and useful FP2003 add-in
to write, look no further.
