Help! Adding a notes/comment tag to a form button 2

[RDM23]

I have an Access form with various buttons that run a macro when selected. I would like to add a "note" or something that would show more details if they clicked on it. In Excel, I know you can enter a comment on a field. Wondering what this is called in Access and how to add it. Thanks in advance for any help.

Have a look at the ControlTipText property of your control.

You can try the ControlTip Text property of the button. If the user hovers briefly over the button, the text in this property is displayed.
