Describe and Modify argument:

Parameter	Description
buttonname	The name of the button to which you want to assign an action.
value	Whether the action’s default picture is used. Values are: Yes – Use the default picture. No – Do not use the default picture.

Usage

Default pictures can be associated with all button action
types. However, the only default pictures provided for use on a
Web DataWindow are: InsertRow, PageFirst, PageLast, PageNext, PagePrior,
Retrieve, and Update. These pictures are included as GIF files in
the DWACTION126.JAR file in the SAPSharedPowerBuilder directory.

For the Web DataWindow, you must uncompress the dwaction126.jar file, deploy
the individual GIF files to your Web site, and specify their location
with the DataWindow HTMLGen.ResourceBase property that you can set
on the JavaScript Generation page in the DataWindow’s Property
view.

You can add your own action pictures by setting the DefaultPicture
property to False and setting the Filename property to the file name for
the picture you want. You can use a URL instead of a complete path
to qualify the file name, and you can leave off the URL server name,
mapping prefix, and folder name if you set them in the HTMLGen.ResourceBase
property.

A user-defined action does not have a default picture associated
with it.

In the painter

Select the control and set the value in the Properties view, General
tab, Action Default Picture option. When the DefaultPicture is not
set, you can specify a picture file name in the Picture File property.
Button pictures can be BMP, GIF, or JPEG files.
