We manage help tips this way: - For each object, select the On Mouse Enter form event - We have a Help Tip named "HelpText" which simply contains a variable, tHelpText. Select that Help Tip for each object. - On the object, populate the tHelpText variable in the On Mouse Enter form event.
With this scheme, you can customise your help tips in lots of creative ways - e.g. depending on whether the user is on Mac or Windows, what day of the week it is, what level of access the user has, or whatever. I also find it much easier to manage the tips as you don't have to deal with a long list of Help Tips.
