Is there any way (without resorting to VBA) of changing the tool ti
that appears when I hover over a Forms control combo box placed on
chart I keep expecting to find a property sheet somewhere allowing m
to update it but I can't find anything anywhere. The tip currently say
"Drop Down 15
 
Ok - I've managed to answer this myself and it turns out to be ver
simple! In case anyone else wants to know... The tool tip that appear
when you hover over a control is by default the name of the control
e.g. "Drop Down 15" for a combo box in my chart, so simply update th
name in the name box to whatever you want to appear in your screen tip
e.g. "Select a Customer", and press enter (I forgot this last bit whic
is why it wouldn't work before). The object will now be called Select
Customer but more importantly that is what helpfully appears in the too
tip
