Making custom toggle buttons in Access

Question

Is there any way to make a custom toggle button in Access? I'm looking to create an on/off switch. The built in toggle button is fugly.

I have already created the on/off/hover images in photoshop. Is there a way to import them code them to work like the built in toggle button?

Answer 1

It should be easy enough to simply adjust the picture property, for example:

Private Sub Toggle0_Click()
    If Me.Toggle0 Then
        Me.Toggle0.Picture = "Z:\Docs\Picture1.bmp"
    Else
        Me.Toggle0.Picture = "Z:\Docs\Picture2.bmp"
    End If
End Sub

Access 2010 has an AMAZING button editor, and the combinations and glow and shadow effects are amazing. In less time to type this sentence, I made these toggle buttons:

In above the button differences is when the button is depressed or not (so dark blue examples above are those that are depressed)

Here is a screen cap of the built in tools in Access used to create the above – I did not use any 3rd party tools to build the above. As pointed out by others here you can include an image with the button.
