[RESOLVED] Using mouse hover to display text?

I'm trying to write a program in VB 2010 for my computing project.
The program is essentially a site that allows you to login/ register and once on the site you can access a Spanish Educational game with a selection of 5 different topics.

My issue here is that on the "Topics Form" I want there to be the 5 buttons that, when hovered over, display a description of the topic in a label to the right of the buttons.

I have been looking for a while and only come across Tooltips, which are useful but not what I am looking for.


Any guidance here would be much appreciated and I hope that I have made it clear enough.

No, you haven't made it clear at all... text that appears when you hover over something ARE tooltips...

So what's the problem?

Tooltips are like notes that appear when you hover over the button. I want the text to appear in a specified label.

Ooooh... well then... even easier actually - use the MouseHover to set it and the MouseLeave to reset it...

Code:

---


    Private Sub Button1_MouseHover(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.MouseHover
        Label1.Text = "AAAAH! Get it off! Get it off!"
    End Sub

    Private Sub Button1_MouseLeave(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.MouseLeave
        Label1.Text = "Rest..."
    End Sub
End Class

That's perfect thanks!
I also appreciate the humour, +rep
