Is there a ToolTip event?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have started using Markup in ToolTips and they look great.  But if I have to add a MarkUp ToolTip text string to every control and menu item, the amount of code will be very big.

So has anybody got a better idea for adding lots of MarkUp ToolTips?

For example, if there was a ToolTiprequired event, I could generate the tooltips only when needed.

Any ideas?

	I hardly believe it, but the following does work (and solves my problem) .ToolTip = GetTip(123) Private Function GetTip(byVal TipNbr as long) as String ..........code to create complicated MarkUp string to suit button 123 ........... End Function (I still cannot see how this can work, but it is great!!! )
