You cannot set up an image on the page links of an activity button. All page links in the navigation pane use a default image that cannot be changed.

You set up activity buttons the page that is used as the Role Center. To complete this procedure, you must have the name or ID of the Role Center page.

To set up image on an activity button

  1. To open Object Designer, in the development environment, on the Tools menu, choose Object Designer.

  2. To open Page Designer, in Object Designer, choose Page, select the Role Center page, and then choose the Design button.
