Form issues -- formatting

Guest

So here's my grand idea. I have a Visio flowchart that I wan to use as a
switchboard in Access. There does not appear to be tool to export a
flowchart over and convert to a form. No big deal, I just pasted it over as
an object and created some transparent command buttons over the flowchart
processees to open up various forms.

This works except that when the button is transpartent, it doesn't light up
when the mouse passes over it. This is basically my only issue so far... any
suggestions?

my suggestion is to use a proper Access menu. it takes very little time to
set one up.

I'm not sure I understand your point... I know how to set-up a menu but
that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm attemting to build a switchboard that
resembles a flowchary. I'm trying to get the flowchart objects to emulate
cammand buttons.

How about using hyperlinks instead of code to open the forms? I did a quick
test, and in Access 2003 I still get the pointing hand hyperlink icon when
mousing over the command button, even when the command button is
transparent.
