control tip delay

[emartel]

I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me how to edit the control tip delay in form design: ie: so as the controltip comes up much sooner than the default set by access?
many thanks

Welcome to the forum!

No, there is no way to adjust the speed of the control tip.

I prefer to use one "display" label to let the user know what is going on or what control has the focus. Check this thread out to see my mouseoverpopups.zip example on how to use a label to display a custom screen message to the user. The labels caption property is instantaneously updated when using my method.
