Adding a bitmap to a button

[gknierim]

Is there a way to make the picture you add to a command button(via the Picture property) to appear to the left of the text on the button? Or do I need to paint a Picturebox on the button and paste it that way? Currently, when I assign a picture to the button, it places it above the text on the button.

add picture ontop of the button or make a active control and make your own button

With VB 6 there is an easier way. Set the buttons style = 1 - Graphical and choose a picture for the picture property.

Sometimes simpler can be better. :)

I think you might have mis-read my post. I have already done that.

Actually, I added the Component Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object library and used the command button that comes with that. It has 8 or so PicturePosition properties that will place the picture anywhere on the button.
