the short answer:
include this command just before the section where you define
FvwmButtons within the file:
DestroyModuleConfig FvwmButtons*
the long answer:
from what i understand, it is common for an experienced fvwm user to
incluse the Destroy tags just before defining certain items (menues,
functions, decors and modules). this ensures that if the file is re-read
by fvwm, the old definitions are erased. for example, in my .fvwm2rc file
i'm going to define a menu named "Beep". Including the DestroyMenu tag
that, full definition would look like this:
DestroyMenu "Beep"
AddToMenu "Beep" "Beep Me" Title
+ "" Nop
+ "ok!" Beep
:)
i hope this helps...
