Control tip text only runs when the mouse runs over a field. Can I do something so that when a control has the focus, to then run it’s Contol tip text. This way I get functionality of control tip text when a user TABS through controls also. Possible?

Hi Arage,
Not sure if that is possible.
However one solution I use is making use of each controls tag property. Place your control tip text in here, add a label to your form and then in the On GotFocus event of each control you can set the caption property of your label to that control's tag
i.e MyLabel.Caption = MyControl.Tag
That way each time a user tabs through each control the label's caption will be updated
