Well, yeah. It needs to have *some* parent. It just can't be the grid, or the form. Take a look at how THintWindow works. To begin, it uses the ws_Popup window style. I think that's the most important part. The key methods to look at are CreateParams and ActivateHint. -- Rob _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi
