    copy a buttons format to a new button

    I know this was possible in access 2003 but cant find it in 2010. I want to create a new button on my form and make it look like the other buttons on the form. I could copy the whole button over i suppose but is there not a way to simply copy the format from an existing button to a new one? Thanks

    John

    The button font, background, and border formatting can be copied using the Format Painter found on the Home tab in the Clipboard section. You can double click the paintbrush and keep on selecting the buttons you want to format.
    Another option is to select all your buttons and modify your properties. All the selected buttons will be updated.
