Bob,

Glad I could help. You might want to look at buttons with their Style set to Invisible to provide non-rectangular buttons in your UI. You can put one of these behind a label. It'll accept focus so users can Tab to it and get a focus border around your label. I used a Label subclass that added the button behind itself at runtime. It worked very well to give me hotlink labels instead of gray buttons.
