Hi,

I have a form with command buttons that run different macro's that downloads queries into Excel.

What i would like to do if it is possible, is to somehow add an explanation of what the download will contain if the user should either hover over the button or even better if there was a way of adding ? box to the button so that the user could click on the ? and get a description of what will be downloaded.

I do have a very brief description on the button stating what it does but I would like to give the user a more detailed description of what is in the download.

Is there any way of doing this?

Thank you.
 
I think I have fixed this myself.

Wihtin the properties of the command button I have added text within the ControTip Text, which means when the user hovers over the button the text will appear.
 
I see somewhere (I remember that is was a very professional DB program) some "buttons" (I think that there was picture boxes) that have, in the top right corner another button (also I think that there was picture boxes). This small "buttons", when clicked, pop up a small form with a detailed description for the main button utility. I remember this because, at that time, I think: "Cool idea".
