OLE control properties are the primary means of interacting with OLE controls. Properties, much like OI control properties, describe the persistent attributes of the control, that is, attributes having some meaningful value for the entire life of the control. Like OI control properties, OLE control properties are manipulated using the Get_Property and Set_Property routines. The following properties apply to the SRP Button Control:

|---|---|---|
| BackVisible | Determines whether or not the button's background is drawn. | |
| Background | The button's background. | |
| ButtonType | Determines whether the OLE Button will behave as a standard push button or as a checkbox (aka toggle button). By default the control will act as a standard push button. When used as a checkbox you can specify whether it will have two or three states. | |
