About control buttons
Control buttons set numeric values on other fields. You can use these buttons to issue one command or a series of commands in a multiple step progression. In the case of multiple steps, a control button can cycle through each step in a continuous loop or dead end at the final step.
A control button acts like a series of stacked virtual buttons. When a user clicks the button, the button appearance and functionality changes. This lets you guide users through a series of steps without having to display buttons for each of these steps side by side on the form. For example, the button could first say Submit to send a message. The message recipient might then see a button that says Approve.
