Control Tips using Stephen Lebans' continuous form code

N

Hi,

I've managed to use Stephen Lebans' code from
ContinuousFormsCurrentRowVer7 to display the text from the current
field in an unbound textbox. I'm trying to get that text to appear as
the controltip for that field. I saw another post which said to
specify the controltiptext property rather than the unbound textbox as
the dispay for the current record.

I've tried this, but Access tells me that an obejct is required.

Is there a way round this? For example, I thought of simpy hiding the
original display textbox, and setting the controltiptext to be the
value of the display textbox - this doesn't seem to make any difference
(perhaps someone can tell me exactly where to put that code?)

Has anybody else managed this? Do I perhaps need Mr. Lebans' tooltip
code also?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Neil
