Hi,

I was looking at a text box to set its Tool Tip property and it seems Dot
Net does not provide this as a property? Is this correct or have I missed it
somewhere?

Also could someone explain the ImeMode settings?

Thanks

Doug

Place a tooltip component on your form and take a look at the textbox'
properties window again.

Hi,

yep, that's completely different in .Net compared to i.e. VB6. You'll have
to insert a Tooltip-component from the toolbox onto your form. After that,
your form's controls will be extended with a "tooltip on [name of the
tooltip-component]"-property which you can use to set your tooltip.

Well, I've never had to use it so I know next to nothing about it.
But - unless you need to add support for Japanese, Korean or Chinese you
won't have to use it with anything but the default setting either.
The IME-mode specifies what "editor" to use when a control is focused.
But if you'd like to know more, do a quick lookup on "IME-mode" either at
MSDN or in your local online-help.
