In Access 2000, I would have sworn I could see the controltiptext of a
button without clicking on it. Can this still be done in AccessXP?
If so, does someone have a code snippet showing how to do it? I can
only get it to work by clicking the button...
Thanks,
Pieter

The tip text should show without clicking, provided nothing else is
overlapping your button.

Really weird. Tested it out on a new form, and it works fine.
Removed any code that would interfere with it from the form that
didn't work, and it still didn't work. Time to rebuild...
Thanks!
Pieter,
Do you have the button in a box? If you do, selecet the button and then go to
Format - Move To Front.

Thanks, I got it sorted. I broke down and wrote code to assign the
ControlTipText by opening the form in design mode and interating
through the command buttons... works a champ.

if the user select the EmployeeID in drop down list, and then click the
submit button, and it will look up database and show the Employee Name in
the text box, this is easy.
But my case is: when the user select the employeeid in drop down list, it
will
fire the onchange event, and then look up database and show the employee
name in the text box. There is no submit button.
I really have no idea how to do that.

Is there a way to speed up the display of the ControlTipText so that
it appears to happen instantaneously rather than appear in a second or

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
