Hints

Hi,

I have read a lot of related postings on hints.

But does anyone have a shortcut way of showing the hints over a particular
control or cell,
example a cell of a string grid when mouse pointer is over it.

Past postings are quite vague about this issue.

Appreciate if some one can post me a sample.

Thanks

- Joe

Look at THintWindow and THintInfo. THintWindow provides a way to
implement the pop-up hint window from the application. Sorry, don't have
a sample to provide.
