<<Thanks, Bob. It's not quite as convenient as the old screen tips were,
but I suppose I'll have to manage with it. (Why would Microsoft get rid of
a nice feature like screen tips for dialogs, especially after all of us have
gotten used to it??)>>
It turned out that only a tiny fraction of our customers were using them and
they were surprisingly hard to program and keep accurate. (However, most of
us techies were in the fraction that loved them. :-( )
We're investigating better alternatives for this for our next version.
