How to add tool tips to button control

I thought this was a property of any button control but I can't seem to find it in the button properties. Does anyone know how to add a tool tip to a button control.

Thanks in advance

In VB or in Access

In access is "ControlTipText" property

in vb is ToolTip

Hi,

Have you added the tooltip object to your project from the toolbox?. Once you have done this, then you will get a tooltip option appear in the properties of the form controls (eg text box, button etc.)

Cheers

Thanks, I didn't realize the tooltip object enabled a tooltip in the properties of other buttons. I've got it working now.
