L. Kobarg  (2 Submissions)   Custom Controls/Forms/Menus   VB Script   Advanced   Wed 3rd February 2021

This XP-Style Button can be placed on any structured background without distubance of the 'Skin'. The corners are slightly rounded. MouseOver and TabStop will be highlighted. The color of the button can be adapted to any color during runtime. No pictures are used.
