Summary:

The Picture property for 3-D Command Button and 3-D Group Push Button

custom controls can load certain picture formats. However, the 3-D

Command Button Load Picture dialog box incorrectly shows *.WMF in the

File Name box. This mistakenly indicates that .WMF (Windows metafile)

files can be used for pictures. Also, the 3-D Group Push Button Load

Picture dialog box for the PictureUp, PictureDn, and PictureDisabled

properties incorrectly lists *.WMF and *.ICO in the File Name box.

This mistakenly indicates that .WMF and .ICO files can be used for

pictures.

The 3-D Command Button control Picture property can only use .BMP

(bitmap) and .ICO (icon) files. If you attempt to load a .WMF file,

the following error message will be displayed:

Only picture formats ".BMP" & ".ICO" supported

The 3-D Group Push Button control PictureUp, PictureDn, and

PictureDisabled properties can only use .BMP files. If you attempt to

load a .ICO or .WMF file, the following error message will be

displayed:

Only picture format ".BMP" supported

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Professional

Toolkit for Microsoft Visual Basic programming system version 1.0 for

Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information

here as it becomes available.
