How to: Specify Control Tip Text for Controls

  • Article

The following example defines the ControlTipText property for three CommandButton controls and two Page objects in a MultiPage.

Note

The Microsoft Forms 2.0 CommandButton control includes the ControlTipText property.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Script Editor of a form. To run the code you need to open the form so the Open event will activate. Make sure that the form contains:

  • A MultiPage named MultiPage1.

  • Three CommandButton controls named CommandButton1 through CommandButton3.

Note

For an individual Page of a MultiPage, ControlTipText becomes enabled when the MultiPage or a control on the current page of the MultiPage has the focus.

Sub Item_Open() 
 Set MultiPage1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").MultiPage1 
 Set CommandButton1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").CommandButton1 
 Set CommandButton2 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").CommandButton2 
 Set CommandButton3 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").CommandButton3 
 
 MultiPage1.Page1.ControlTipText = "Here in page 1" 
 MultiPage1.Page2.ControlTipText = "Now in page 2" 
 
 CommandButton1.ControlTipText = "And now here's" 
 CommandButton2.ControlTipText = "a tip from" 
 CommandButton3.ControlTipText = "your controls!" 
End Sub
