TButton | Present command choices on buttons with text
TBitBtn | Present command choices on buttons with text and glyphs

Action lists let you centralize responses to user commands (actions) for objects such as menus and buttons that respond to those commands. See Using action lists for details on how to use action lists with buttons, toolbars, and menus.

You can custom draw buttons individually or application wide. See Developing the user interface.
