[Brian Henry]

does anyone know of a control or code that would create those little "whats
new" dialog boxes that pop up before apps run on some apps? i know i could
make one myself but thought maybe one already existed thanks

Hi Brian,

It is just a showdialog with a label (with background) and the use of the
register for counting. The tips you can hardcode or put them in a XML file.

Hi Brian,

I can not find a control that will work as a tip of the day control so far.
Also I think it is easy for us to build such a Form.
The only possible difficult is how to read the words for tip of the day.
As Cor said, we can stored the words in a xml file and read them out use
the classes in the xml namespace.
Or from an online webservice, so that we do not care when to update the
words in the tip of the day.

If you still have any concern on this issue, please feel free to post here
and I will follow up with you.

Hi Herfried,

Not true the only thing it need is an IIS server with ASPNET, and it is
certainly not need to collect the whole Internet for it.
