TextHint fills the TCustomEdit with the value assigned to it, whenever the control's Text property is empty and the control does not have focus. Hint only (and alwaysif showhint = true) displays a bloontip when the mouse is over the control. Just play with it: Edit1.TextHint := 'Type your name here'; Bart -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
