Mouse over and mouse out

Is there an event in VB that similar to HTML mouseover and mouseout?

I couldn't find it and the best alternative I could find is mousemove. But mousemove event trigger even I move my mouse around the current object which result in the code under that event run and run again.

And I couldn't find mouseout event.

Thx

Sorry there isn't. You have to fake it in some way. On alternative is on the mousemove event of the objects parent, you would put the code that you would normally put in the MouseOut. Realize thought that you might have to put that code on other objects too, depending on how close other objects are to the current object.

This is a copy of code that emulates the MouseOver and
MouseOut events. I downloaded it quite a while ago. The
origin of the code is from a guy named seaweed. Copy this
code into a form with a Timer control, a Label control, and
a Command button control (leave the names at the default
Timer1, Label1, and Command1). When you run it, move your
mouse over the label and command button for an example of
the Emulated MouseOver and MouseOut events. It works
pretty well.

Hope this helps.
