Morning all!
Does anyone know if it is possible to change the length of time that a
ControlTip on a form is displayed for?
Default seems to be ten seconds. One of my "Users" would like this changed
to five seconds. I've searched the A97 and A2k "Help" without joy. MSDN has
not helped either. C++ lets you set delay time but that is not a lot of help
to me <BG>
Thanks!

Spike,

So far my searches only send me to C++ programming structures. They're no
help here in Access VBA (that I know of).
I do have one suggestion, though... your "user" wants it set to five
seconds. That's not a whole heck of a lot of time to read one. May I
suggest that when you do find an answer that you set the duration of the
tooltip to be a function of its length? The shorter ones pop in and out,
the longer ones linger a while for you to be able read them without being
a graduate of Evelyn Wood's speedreading class.
