Buttons

Hello.
I am designing a database, and I want to add some navigations buttons with a
XP or Vista style.
However, when I download some sample images from de Internet and I try to
insert them in the Access, they appear quite bad.
Anyone have any ideas how to avoid this situation?
Thank you.
Best regards.

Not 100% sure if this is your problem, but I believe access handles bitmaps
best.

Hope this helps,

Hi Daniel,

I use images for buttons as well. I find that after adding the image to a
form, I have to use the properties sheet to set the Borders to transparent.
Just to be safe I make the background and the border color the same as the
color of my form as well.

Often I have to use a graphics program to make the color of the area around
the button in the image the same as the background color of my form.

Hope it helps,
