Virginia,

I received this e-mail from Stephen Bond, who cannot post at the
moment with this reply:

FWIW if this helps, there is an
option in Access 2003 which toggles between the new
(flat-looking) command buttons and the previous (much
clearer) raised version.

It is in Tools>Options>Forms/Reports>Use Windows Themed
Controls on Form

I haven't seen an answer to the original question come thru,
so hope this helps whoever was asking.

Hope this helps,
