I need to find an alternative to the stock command buttons in VFP.. The requirements are as follows:
o Resizeable from 30x30-600x30 programmatically
o Ability to have a caption and an icon(bitmap) on button-- must have transparent setting!
o Ability to change caption and icon programmatically
o Ability to change foreground AND background color on the button face.
o Ability to change bevel on button(3D effect)
Currently, I have created my own class in VFP. It uses a container with a raised effect(lowered when being pressed down), and contains an image control and label for the caption. This doesn't work that great, as the button for pressing down uses the INKEY() command. I'd much prefer an ActiveX control that does what I need to do-- of course I am open to other solutions as well. Thank you for all your input!
