>That sounds all great and slick...but is there a way to place a picture to the left of the caption text, and not above it? Borland C++, Delphi, and Visual dBase all seem to take this wish seriously and gave us a direct lame-level way to do it. Yet VFP, as far as I know, allows you to have the pic displayed only above your caption text. Did I miss something there?

Hi Robert,
As far as I know, the only way to do so is to put your caption text right into graphic image. Another way is to put the label control over that button at the right place, and put the button Click() code into label's Click() but in this case you will not see your button depressed.
