  • Thank you guys for your help tips.
    The style property is actually read only at run time so that is not an option.

    The button has nothing in front of it but it is inside a frame as other controls. The other controls do not have any issues and I see no reason so far why this is happening,perha ps because it is the most active button and one that closes the form, because all other buttons are set as graphical also.
    For now,...

  • Thanks BigPapa,
    The above code did not even solve the problem.

    I think there is an issue with the graphics style of the command button. It works well if set to standard. Issue arises when style is set to graphics.

  • Hi Killer42
    I had tried clipcontrols and AutoRedraw earlier. I think the issue is related to the fact that the button's style was set to graphics. I needed to set a back color for the button to let user identify it easily (these are old people with very little knowledge of the computer).

    Now, I changed style to default and it works fine.
    I still need to find a way to change the back color of that button without losing it...

  • Instead of using picture box, why not use the Microsoft Multimedia Control?

    In VB,select Project -> Component, then select Microsoft MultimeriaContr ol.

    It solves all your problems.

  • Command Button not displaying on form after a reload

    I have a form with a form in my application.

    When the form is reloaded, a particular command button refuses to display even when there was no command to hide it. It only shows a blank shape where the button is supposed to be.

    Has anybody experienced this in the past.

    Kindly help me out with this as it does the same on clients' machines after compillation and deployment....

    Why go for third party?

    VB came with a tool to help you achieve this.
    1. Click Start
    2. Navigate to the VB Program group (i.e. All Programmes - Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 - Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Tools)
    3. Select Package and Deployment Wizard.

    It will launch the wizard. Just follow the steps and you are done.

    While selecting the files, please include the Access mdb file as one...

    How can I place text on a tool bar?

    Hi again,

    I have succeeded in changing the background color of my Tool Bar. Tanks to everyone here.

    What I need to do now is Place a text on the tool bar (Just like a Title text). This is not meant to be the label of any of the buttons. It is meant to be positioned in the remaining blank space of the tool bar.

    I have used other methods to display the text but they want it on the tool bar.

  • How can I change the forecolor and backcolor of a listview Header?

    In my application, specific colors are required to match the theme color of the organisation. i.e. Blue forecolor/Yellow backcolor.

    However, I use listview to present some reports to the users. I succeed in changing the back and fore colors of the data displayed in the listview but cant find a way of doing so to the column header.

    Thank you again for all the help.

  • Thanky ou GGEU for your brilliant idea. It was greately helpful.

    I chose to apply the image directly without using the clipboard. That reduced the process time.

    However, both procedures worked well.

    Thank you once again and to all purus here. Happy coding.

  • Thank you for your replies. One of the things I am avoiding is using the Enterprise Manager to export the database and in case I suceed with that. How do I import it using code?

    Second is if I have to backup the database from MS SQL Server, Can I achieve that with code? if yes how do I restore on client machine using code.

    The high point of all these is that I am working with VB6 and just want to have this put together,...
