do ToolTipMenu.mpr with this

_Screen.ActiveForm.ShowTips = .t.

_Screen.ActiveForm.ShowTips = .f.

>As I said, it was "Either-or"... The second solution (reference _SCREEN.ActiveForm) means that the menu code can safely assume it will operate on the form. The first will work on any kind of object (one that has ShowTips property, of course, which will include _SCREEN and Toolbars). You have the second one working, so how do you put the first one to work also? When you're editing the RC menu, select View:General options...:Setup... and write down a PARAMETERS oObj statement. You get rid of the "No parameter statement is found" error message and you can reference the object in PADs code as oObj.


Thanks Antonio.
