Introduction
This article is about making a User Control behave and look like a Windows XP Style Button.
Background
Someone posted on the Code Project a Windows XP button. I found that this
looked a lot like a VB.Net button whose properties is set to view as a flat button. I expected it to be like
the buttons used by the XP calculator. Well I think my result is nearly perfect. See for yourself.
Using the code
If you use VS 2003 you should open all the user controls in designer view. Then it
will show
on the Toolbox under the My User Controls Tab. If you use VS 2002, it will display on the Tab where all
the Windows Controls are displayed.
Points of Interest
Ok, so if anyone who has a better version, or something better than this XP Style button,
I would appreciate it if you could share some code.
History
This is the first version and I will change it as it gets better.
