balloon tip on a button?

[Nak]

Hi there,

I'm using the sendmessage technique to get a balloontip to appear on
text boxes, but I can't get it to appear on anything else. Is there any way
that I can get it to appear on something like a button? At the moment I'm
having to hide a textbox behind a button to get it to work (which is a major
bodge). Many thanks in advance!

Nick.

Hi,

Add a tooltip componet to your form. That will allow you to add a
tooltip to the button.

Hi Ken,

I think you misunderstood me, I was refering to a "balloon tip", they
look much nicer than a tooltip. But anyway, it's okay, I've just found the
answer at,
