I need multi line tool tip text for a radio button ... is this possible. I add vbcrlf to the string when i make the assignment, but the crlf shows up as gargbage characters.

It's no problem...only about 3 pages of code

I remember making one in VB4 16 and 32 bit. It was actually quite simple: "real" tooltip is a window, so add new form (borderless) and paste 1 label control with index = 0. On your form you will need a Timer and few API functions such
GetCursorPos
WindowFromPoint
SetWindowPos
etc ... (cannot recall them all the moment but these are the major).

Haven't use in awhile, but I bet it'll work just as fine.

The only thing I can see keeping me from a very simple solution (no subclassing, timers, etc) is the lack of a mouse out event for controls.

Is there any thing I could do to get the equivalent of a mouse out event on an option button?

Thanks

For any control that has a MouseMove event and an hWnd...
