Hi Haresh,

AFAIK you cannot change that behaviour. However why is it a problem and why
does it spoil your creativity. It provides useful feedback to user to
indicate the shape is pressed and will fire a macro if user releases mouse
while still over the shape, or could abort by dragging mouse off the shape
before releasing.

Hi everyone!

i am using an autoshape (rectangle with rounded conrnes) instead of a
command button. i have given it a very creative look. its clolour is
formatted to give a two colour fill effect. there is a macro assigned to
its
click event.
now the prob is that when the user clicks on it. its color changes from
yellow to dark blue and spoils the whole appearance. if this happens then
my
whole creativity and my time will be a waste and i will have to go back to
traditional command button is there any way to get around this please.

any help will be much appreciated
Thanks very much
Haresh
