About wrapping style, inlineshapes,shapes, and command buttons

[BulionCuBranza]

Hi,
I have 2 commandbutton controls ,one with an inLineWithText wrapping
style , the other with a different wrapping style, say behind text.Why
is one missing the top and left properties?..i know wrapping style has
something to do with the inlineshape and shape control but in object
browser both commandbutton-s show up as being of commandbutton type
thus belonging to commandbutton class; how come they have different
properties since they are objects of the same class? what am i missing
here?

Because one is an Shape, and the other is a InlineShape.

The one with BehindText is a Shape, and thus has a Top and Left.

The one with InLine with Text is an InlineShape, and thus does NOT have a Top
and Left.

These are attributes of the Format Control. Both are still commandbutton,
and of the same class - AS COMMANDBUTTONS.

However, one is an InlineShape, and the other is a Shape - two very different
beasties.
