Hi,

Sorry, the last post from Chewey was from me, I was in the wrong account.

To get to the events window, make sure you can see the properties window, then click the little lightning looking thing (ensure that your button is selected before you do this).

Then you can see all the events that a button can do. Double click on one to add an event (i did this for the MouseEnter and Leave ones).

My code may not work because your button or label are not named the same.

Hi

I assume you mean in windows forms?

Add a button and a label below it, then put in events for MouseEnter nad MouseLeave for the button like below.

I used the events properties window to add these two events (i.e. I didn't type them manually - the only part i did was the label1.Text lines).

P.S. if you are referring to ASP.NET then let us know.

}
private void button1_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form tutorial = new Form4();
tutorial.Show();

Thank you so much not only did you help me now
but you tought me something for the future thnx

Hello,
you can use tooltip for that.
no need for event handler.
Tool tip is control .you will get it in tool box. Add it to your win form.
Then, in the button control you will have a tooltip property , just write discription .

Cheers

ok thnx
