command buttons

[Erik P]

I would like to know if there is a way to change the color
of the button?

You may be able to post a question concernig activex
controls on the activex discussion group. There may be an
activex control that will allow you to change the color
of a button.

Access has nothing built-in to allow for changes in the command button
backcolor. There are some third-party tools that may help:

A shareware version of Button Painter for MS Access is available at
this web site: http://www.peterssoftware.com/bp.htm

Some simple colored button examples that can be copied into your
application are available at: http://www.peterssoftware.com/clrbtn.htm

Stephen Lebans has an example database that shows how to set a command
button back color and more: http://www.lebans.com/cmdbutton.htm

There are nice "Color Command Buttons" downloads at this site:

Hope this helps,
