[AccessD] A2K: What's this

If by yellow popups you mean tooltips, objects like controls in Access
have a ControlTip property where those are stored.  In 2002, the What's
This button goes to Access help unless you've created a custom help file
and (I assume) the contextID you've indicated for that object.  We
haven't addressed HTML help yet so I can't make any suggestions.

Hello all
In the property sheet it's possible to set the What's This button to
true. The you get the nice little Q mark. The user clicks on the Q mark
then on the area of interest and viola - a nice yellow popup with info
in it.

My Q is...How and where do I actually write and store text for the
yellow popups in the past?

Make sense?

Many thanks in advance

Darren
