problem setting tooltip to ToolStripStatus Label on StatusStrip

I have a statusStrip on a form with some ToolStripStatus Labels - which
function as Previous Record/Next Record, New Record buttons. And instead of
text, I place an image on the ToolStripStatus Labels (prevArrow,
NextArrow...). I wanted to add a tooltip to these labels (that resemble
buttons). But VB2005 is complainng that I can't convert a
ToolStripStatus Label to a control.

Is it possible to set a tooltip to a StatuStrip ToolStripStatus Label? How
to do it?

Here is what I tried that doesn't work:

MyToolTip.SetTo olTip(CType(tss LPrevBeg, ToolStripStatus Label), "Go to
beginning of dataset")

Is there a way to do something like this?

Thanks,
Rich

When you add a StatusStrip to a WinForm and add a Progressbar to the StatusStrip, setting the Progressbar alignment to "Right" does not move the Progressbar to the right on the Statusbar. Is this a bug?

Hi, Winforms has the new StatusStrip control that replaces StatusBar in 1.1. I've looked high and low but can't seem to find how to get separators (|) in my status bar, eg Info1 | Info2 | Info3 | Info4 where Infos 1 to 4 are StatusLabels.

Hi all, (VS 2005 Pro, XP) I'm trying to place a statusstrip control on a window such that it acts like a statusstrip (!). Every time I try this, no matter what I do, I find that when I maximise other containers on the form to fill its' available surface, then these other controls slip behind the statusstrip to fill ALL the form's surface as if the statusstrip didn't even exist!. Statustrip dock property is bottom, other controls all...

I was able to set tooltips on objects other than main menu. I would like to get the effect of tooltip or microhelp in the bottom status bar when the mouse is hovering over a submenu item. How do I do that? For example in outlook express, when one expand a main menu item and holds mouse over one of the enable sub menu item, one would see some sort microhelp text in the status bar in the bottom

Using VS2005 (.NET 2.0), VB.NET, I have a windows forms application. I have a StatusStrip containing a ToolStripStatusLabal and a ToolStripProgressBar. I want to force the status label to behave like it's docked to "Fill" inside the StatusStrip and force the progress bar to behave like it's docked to "Right" inside the StatusStrip. Unfortunately I do not see any way to accomplish this using just one StatusStrip control. Does anyone...

I know there are other files that we don't get to see in VS 2008 but why. I know there is info about what regions are collapsed etc. Now I have a problem with the form designer. When I open a form it right off the bat marks it as changed. Just a double click on the form will cause this. So I close it and say no to save it because in my mind there is no change. Well I have a couple of ToolStripStatusLabel's that exist now in the...

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

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
