ControlTip Text does not work

[RobGMiller]

Access 2003:

Mouse hover over control will not pop up the standard yellow window
with tips entered in the control's ControTip text property.

I tried to bring the control to the front but that doesn't work either.

At one time I disabled all bars and menus to have control over which
ones appear for this application. However, I removed the registry
entries for all preferences for the current user and the popups still
dont appear.

Is there a way to disable/enable this functionality either by some
configuration change in tools/options or programatically using
Application.SetOption?

Any suggestions whould be appreciated.

I have the same problem.

I recently secured the database using user-level security and Control Tips do not show. If I go back to the unsecured copy and put Control Tips in then they show as normal (the window's white not yellow but what the hell).

Any suggestions appreciated.
