Hover Actions?

[Guest]

Is there a code that will bring up a seperate form while hovering the cursor
on a particular control?

What I have is a list box that I would like users to hover on and retrieve
relevant data, and then have it disappear when they move off the control. I
think this might be more of an HTML option, but wanted to check.

It all depends on the amount of data you want to show but basically what you
want is the ControlTipText.

I'm not sure if the size of this ControlTipText property is sufficient for
what you need max size 255 chars. if not then you have 2 options either have
a textbox/label or subform in your form which you enable on hoover en disable
on lostfocus.
If you really want to make it neat then you can also control the positioning
of these controls.


Hope this gives you some ideas.
