Jukka,
I had a spelling error in "borders"; it is incorrect, but is just an
example.
And simply put, she wanted an easy method for saying "I don't want this
button to have any of the previous global formatting applied to it."
I truly understand that global formatting like that is erroneous, but
because I try to be a good guy, I offered to ask you all, since to my
knowledge there was no way.
