Hi All...I am trying to save a picture on a command button along with
caption. For e.g. have a disk image and next to it say SAVE. I cannot do
both. I am only allowed either or option. Does anyone know how I can have
both? Thanks for your help in advance.

I don't think that's possible in Access. Unless you create your own image
with both image and text on the image and put that on your command button.

You can't, using just Access.
What you can do is copy the image to MSPaint (if you can). Use the
Text tool to write and position your text. Save the image as a .bmp or
..ico file.
Then use this image as the command button picture.
It takes a bit of practice to get it right, but once you know how the
next one gets easier.
 
Use Image control and add your image (Icon?) then use label control and add
Label with Caption SAVE. Place above or below your image. Now add a
command button and size it over the image and label. Set cmd btn
transparency to yes.
Code the on-click event of the cmd btn, and you are good to go!
