Wayne -
Thanks for this. I've been iterating the controls in my app and
setting each HelpTag to "". Much more elegant (and simple) this way.

Hi,
I found a solution for Mac for dynamically enabling/disabling help
tags.
I don't know the solution for Windows/Linux.
Does anyone know how? I'd like to give a checkbox for the user to
enable/disable tooltips (hints) on those platforms.
Through googling, I found you could enable/disable HelpTags in OSX
(not
classic), using the following code. It works well,
placed inside the action() routine of a checkbox:
dim result As Integer
#if TargetMacOS
Soft Declare Function HMSetHelpTagsDisplayed Lib "Carbon.framework"
(inDisplayTags as Boolean) as Integer
if ( me.Value = True ) then
result = HMSetHelpTagsDisplayed(True)
else
result = HMSetHelpTagsDisplayed(False)
end if
return
#endif
I may have to test for existence of the function later, but I'm
not there
yet.
thanks!
wade
