Can't you use a togglebutton instead of a regular button? If I did undertand
your question correctly the tooglebutton should give you the pushed in effect
you are looking for...

I have command buttons on my worksheet with macros attached. My
question/issue is with their appearance. They will execute as soon as
I click on them. But, I need to hold the mouse button down on them
for a second or two for the image to change to a "pushed in"
button. Is there some way to make this change quicker?...e.g.like
as I click on it...thanks
