Multi-Line Tool Tip Text

[littleenoch]

I know it is possible but I don't know how complicated it is. I need to be able to create a multi-line tool tip text box.

I have tried adding vbcrlf to the tool tip property but it doesn't work and I tried to add a vblf to the tool tip property but it doesn't work either. I am hoping that there is an easy way to do this.

In windows there is a multi-line tool tip if you put your cursor over the Dialup Networking folder, or Control panel folder under my computer. You will see three lines of text as a tool tip. I want to be able to do that.

thanks for the help.

Here's an excellent example of a multiline tooltip, and when you have win2k you can also get the Balloon style tooltips.

http://www.planetsourcecode.com search on tooltips, and get the wonders of a dozen or so downloadable projects to help you out. Have just downloaded Tristan's example and it looks pretty cool.
