Hi X-Tools
I don't think that may be possible with VDS.
I think what you are looking for is XP style buttons.
One need to go for rebar/owner drawn button/subclassing in VDS
to achieve this and I don't think anyone has done such things
as of now.

So IMHO the best bet would be to use a image editor and
to a image say 20x60 add both the icon and the text in
the image itself and set no caption to the bitbtn.
Screen shot :

Other Options:
Use text elements with click style
OR bitmap with click and mouse over style
to give the button effect too.
