Is there any way of displaying, within a button or label on a MS Access form, both a picture and text?
i.e. displaying an icon file (tick or other image) and the word "OK" or other text.

The easiest(and possibly only) way to do this is to include the text in your graphic.

Thanks Brian, your solution did occur to me, but, I wondered whether it could be achived by using the ActiveX control MS Forms 2 Label?
For the moment I'll hang fire with your solution. I find it strange though, that what I'm after, can be done in MS Excel forms using the label contol?

It doesn't look as if the MS Forms controls have a picture property when used in Access...

One way to get around it is to place a label with its background property set to transparent over the button and make it the same size as the button. Make sure you format the label as "Bring to Front". Then place the ON CLICK procedure on the label, not the button. Not exactly elegant, but it works.
