    Make Text Large in ControlTip?

    Hello,



    I would like to be able to control the size of the font in the ControlTip Text so that a person with low vision would be able to mouse over the control to get a magnified view of what the control/field is called. For instance, can you add html mark-up to the controltip text in the Property Sheet?

    Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks


    Linda

    G'd morning,
    I guess you may want to see my demo. I had to build my own tooltip because the Lebans' solution was way too complex and didn't work for all controls. Go to my website and see if that suit your needs.
    G'd luck
