Hi Nerissa.

Show Tips is a user setting normally maintained by the user in the User Preferences form.

>oform.lShowTips does not stay to .T. because when the windows registry is read through GetSetting() method, its value is .F. I'm wondering why the value of lShowTips in the Properties window is ignored by the application while it is supposed to use whatever value is set by the developer in the Properties window.
