Insert fields into a ToolTip (or ControlTip)

Is there any way to show several fields from a table in a ControlTip? I saw
Stephan Leban's web site on ToolTips, but I am not a programmer, so it isn't
something I can do. I did download and view his example and it does exactly
what I want: Show the record from several fields when the mouse hovers over
the text box. Is there a beginner's way to do what he has done? Thanks.

Hi,

I rather doubt there is an easier way. He went to the effort he did to
deal with a complicated issue that has no easy solution. The thing that
would be needed to make it easier would be for Microsoft to provide an On
Tooltip event. As of 2007, I do not see such an event.
