Need Code

I have been looking without success to find info on making a label show different text upon a mouse hovering over the label.
I know this can be done with very little effort but I just can’t find any info on that.
What I would like to do is, have a Label called E-Mail Me that changes to my email address when the mouse hovers over it then on click opens mail client.
Thanks!

For the first part..put a label on a form, and then copy this code to your form...

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Label1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    Label1.Caption = "[email protected]"
End Sub

Place Label (Label1) on the form, copy and paste this code

VB Code:

Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long
 
Private Sub Form_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    HoverLabel Label1, "E-mail Me", False, vbBlack
End Sub
 
Private Sub Label1_Click()
    ShellExecute Me.hwnd, "Open", "mailto:[email protected]", 0, 0, 3
End Sub
 
Private Sub Label1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    HoverLabel Label1, "[email protected]", True, vbBlue
End Sub
 
Private Sub HoverLabel(LBL As Label, strText As String, FontUnderline As Boolean, FontColor As ColorConstants)
    With LBL
        .Caption = strText
        .Font.Underline = FontUnderline
        .ForeColor = FontColor
    End With
End Sub

That guys code will change the button when you move your mouse on top of it. If you want the button to revert back to its original state, add some code to the form's mouse_move event to change the caption back. You could set booleans on each to make sure you're not constantly changing captions on controls.

Man andreys... you beat me to it...

but it will not work very well, ie if you move your mouse really fast the form will not register the mouse move on the form, or if you move over other controls it wont reset.

That is true...any other ideas???

Andreys!
OK that works great, however, would someone please take the time to explain I don’t want to use it if I don’t understand it.
Just a short explanation would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
