Hints on controls

Hi guys

very simple question here...

I'm kind of new to Vb.NET and I'm having a hard time trying to find how to display hints on the components of my form. You know that little yellow tag with the description of the component?

Your help will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Add a tooltip control to your form from the toolbox. Once you do this, your components will have a tooltip property, which you can then set to the text that you want to be display is as the tool tip

Drag the "Tooltip" control to your form and then you'll have a "Tooltip for
xxx" property for the controls on the form.

Thanks, Jeff
