Form buttons

why can't you change the background colour of a button in a form...?

RE: form buttons

Greg,

In Microsoft Access buttons do not support background colours. To get arround this you can create a picture i.e. a coloured rectangle and assign a picture property to the button.

Hope this helps
David


 

Access tip:

Switchboard Startup

An option when you open your Access database that contains all of you tables, forms and queries is only the switchboard is displayed.

To achieve this, select Tools click on Startup. On the right hand side of the Startup screen you are able to select which form you want to open when you open you Access Database. Once you have selected this, there is a check box just below that says "Display Database Window", you need to uncheck this option. Then click ok.

Then when you close you Access database and re open it, the database should open with just the switchboard being shown
