Tooltips

KC
How can I create a new line in the tooltip that gets displayed? Right now my
tips appear as one long line. I want to make it a little more professional
looking.

Hi Ken

Include CR/LF in the text string and it will start a new line.

Cor's obviously a bit tired.... I think he meant;

\\\
Me.ToolTip1.SetToolTip( _
Me.Button1, _
"That" & ControlChars.NewLine & _
vbcrlf & "is Bar" _
)

Yes let say I was tired I forgot the ", Herfried is always showing the
ControlChar.NewLine and I find that a lot of typing so in addition to
Charles I showed the vbcrlf.

It had to be:

Me.ToolTip1.SetToolTip( _
Me.Button1, _
"That ControlChars.NewLine" & _
vbcrlf & "is Bar" _
)

Forgetting also that *Bar* has probably not the same synonime in English as
in Dutch where it is mostly the same word however as well stands for
*barbaric*.

The only bar in my (English) vocabulary is the place I wish to go and
consume vast amounts of fine Danish lager :D
(And some Guinness)
