Hi

I am trying to display a message in status bar when moving mouse over a control. But it does not display when moving the mouse. When I click on the control then does display.

Private Sub cboNoteType_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
cboNoteType.StatusBarText = "Select Note type from the drop down box"
End Sub

Any idea what's going wrong?

Thanks,
 
my experience is that mouse move doesnt work on controls.
you will need to draw a box around the control and set its mouse move event. you may also need another box around this to create the mouse on, mouse off switches.
set the border and fill colors to that of your background form
