How do I get my command buttons to rebound after one click?

On my form I have 4 command buttons, two as searches and two as print actions,
that have procedures that start "on click." My problem is that when I click
the button does not rebound. In order for it to pop back up I must click it
again which starts the process again. I have tried these as "on mouse down"
actions as well with same results. Is there a way that when I click these
buttons the first time it will automatically rebound?

Here is my coding for one of the buttons.

Private Sub Toggle50_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As
Single, Y As Single)

If IsNull(File_Ref) Or File_Ref = "" Then
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = ""
Else
Me.Filter = "[File] like '*" & File_Ref & "*'"
Me.FilterOn = True
End If

End Sub
 
Those aren't command buttons, they are toggle buttons. The command button
tool is the one with just one rectangle, not the one with two rectangles.

The behavior you mention is that of a Toggle Button, not a Command
Button.
Look at your code....
Private Sub Toggle50

Replace the Toggle Button with a Command Button.
Code the Command Button Click event with your code.
 
Thank you that was it. Its just those simple things I don't pay attention to
I guess.
