Form field with help text

P

Puzzled Trainer

I want to create a form where, if you hover the mouse pointer over the form
field text will display telling you what needs to be input. I can insert
comments and add visible text but this is not what I want to do - Can you
tell me how to do this please?

Thanks

Hovering text of this type is not possible. You can either add help text
which is displayed in the status bar or you can pop up a message box on
entry to the field using the code

MsgBox "Help Text", vbInformation

in a macro run on entry to the field.
