<< I have a DB Edit that holds 100 characters but I only have room to show about 30-40 characters on the screen. Is there a way to have the contents of the field show up as a Hint when the pointer is on the field? >>
The hint text can be updated through the PROPERTY command. So, at the appropriate place in your code, read the value and put it into the hint with PROPERTY ComponentID HINT .vValue The "appropriate place" depends on how you intend to use the form, but I would put this in the ON ROW ENTRY eep and also the EXIT eep for the field. -- Larry
