Tooltip question

[Lee]

Is there a tweak to make tooltips appear longer than they do in
Win2000? Sometimes, for example, a long path name will close before I
have time to write it down. Any suggestion would be appreciated

Hi Lee,

I am not sure what you mean when you write "tooltips...for example, a long path
name". Perhaps you mean the "Location:" tooltip that displays when you hover over a
shortcut to an object... If so, try selecting the object in Windows Explorer and
then look in the status bar at the bottom of the screen. If the status bar is not
visible, click the View menu, and then click Status Bar. And if you mean something
entirely different, please repost with more information.
