thanks for your immediate reply, give the message is not advisable because the exactly want of my client is if they hit the button namely (deliquent) and the owner name of that floors included to the deliquently computations, then the button with name of floors will blink. let say button 101, 102, 103, 104 108,109 is the list of deliquent, so it will blink.
Thanks
Thanks

As was said above set a timer, when the timer expires change the color, and then reset the timer, when it expires again change the color back to the original. I would probably set it in a small loop that counted up to 5 or so, the color will flash a few times and then remain highlighted in color. Blinking objects can be aggravating (as mentioned) but if they flash and then remain marked it will grab the users attention, and the now colored control acts as a flag of sorts for the user...
You can try creating your own Control and define the events and properties as you want them to be.
I guess that will help you as you seem to need multiple 'blinking' buttons.
