Copying a button When you copy a button, you copy the object and the button definition. If you copy a button from another database file, make sure that any fields, layouts, or script references are accurate for the current database. To copy a button: 1. If the button is in another database file, open the file. 2. In Layout mode, select the button and choose Edit menu > Copy. 3. Switch to the layout where you want the button to go. 4. Choose Edit menu > Paste. Notes • To change button text, use the Text tool in the status toolbar. • To see a button definition, switch to Layout mode and double-click the button. The current definition is selected in the Button Setup dialog box.
