access thread: Access - setting picture on command button by code


Message #1 by "s" <sgatt99@h...> on Thu, 21 Feb 2002 13:00:26
Hi,



I would like to change pictures on a command button in response to user 

action.  Both pictures can be found in the MS Access picture builder at 

design time.



Does anyone know where the .bmps from the picture builder are stored on a 

pc as part of the access/office installation so I can do this?



thanks

Hello,



I dont know where the pictures are, but if you get desperate, just create 

a form and stick a button on with the required picture, do a screen dump, 

paste it into a graphics program and get the little picture on the button 

from there.  Bit of a long way to go, but it probably won take as long as 

it seems.



Hope it helps if you cant find the files.



Kind regards, Phillip.

Hello,



As far as I know, the pictures are not available in BMP format.



An easy work-around is to provide two buttons on the same place and play 

around with the Visibla attribute.



Success
