You can do any validation in the Valid() event of a control. However, actually returning .F. (forcing the user back to the offending control) would be a nuisance, IMO - better give the user the flexibility of entering data in any order.
Or course, some controls may depend on options set in other controls, so some controls might be disabled until some conditions is fulfilled.
The "ToolTipText" property is designed to show a message when the use moves the mouse to an object. Showing it under any other circumstances seems complicated to me - you would probably have to create your own version instead of the built-in ToolTipText.
