HandleFocus

I'm new to Access!!!!

Can someone tell me how cam I put in a Form a button like those from the Webpages? I have a picture"a.gif" and when the mouse goes over this I want the picture to be changed with another "b.gif" and when clicked "c.gif", in fact, I want "b.gif" to apear over "a.gif"; something like a button with over state, and if its possible even with down state. Of course, when I click it, to open another form, but this I think I know how to do it.

Please, help me! I have a project to finish and I'm stucked on it! (

PS: Sorry for my English, I missed some of the English classes...

I suggest using a line of code like: Docmd.openform "MyFormName" . Enter
it as an [event procedure] on the "on got focus" property line of your
command button. MyFormName can be a dialog/popup form that displays your
graphic.

I want to use more buttons, something like a website; with a menu on the top. It works what you just told me, but its not helping me because it will open a new form. All I want ot do is to show "b.gif" while the mouse is over an object ("a.gif"). I understand you told me to make a form for each state of the button....I'll have a lot of these forms then....

I found something usefull, but don't know to adapt it....

HandleFocus(1)
""
Private Function HandleFocus(intBtn As Integer)
' This function is called when a menu option receives the focus.
' intBtn indicates which button was clicked.

Dim intOption As Integer

On Error GoTo HandleMouseOver_Err

For intOption = 1 To conNumButtons
'Show that this menu option has the focus...
If intOption = intBtn Then
Me("Option" & intOption).Visible = True
Me("OptionLabel" & intOption).FontWeight = conFontWeightBold
Me("command" & intBtn).SetFocus
'... and turn off the focus on the other options
Else
Me("Option" & intOption).Visible = False
Me("OptionLabel" & intOption).FontWeight = conFontWeightNormal
End If
Next intOption

HandleMouseOver_Exit:
Exit Function

HandleMouseOver_Err:
MsgBox "There was an error executing the command.", vbCritical
Resume HandleMouseOver_Exit

End Function

I copy it from an template project ( http://office.microsoft.com/template...CT010482871033 ). This is the code for the buttons from the switchboard. I think it is made with Switchboard Manager. The buttons don't have a name, are notated with 1, 2, 3,.... , 8 and from the switchboard you can personalize the name of the button.

You know I have never done this, but I think that in your case what I
would do is to load all the images you want one on top of the other.
Make the first A.gif visible and the others not.

When you get a mouseover event on a.gif make it invisible and make
b.gif visible. Then when a click event is encountered on b.gif you
want to make it invisible and c.gif visible. Then once again on click
open some form.
