Here's how I do this in PowerTools: I've got a datagrid that contains thumbnail images, each of which may have a tooltip attached. When I'm setting up the array for the datagrid I do: put the tooltip of control id tWidgetGroup of stack tStackFile into tArray["ToolTip" & tImageNum] then in the behavior script of the datagrid in FillInData: if pDataArray["Tooltip" & tWidgetNum] is not empty then set the tooltip of image tWidgetNum of me to pDataArray["Tooltip" & tWidgetNum] end if so you could do the same with the text field instead of an image. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
