 tool tips running off edge of userform and not refreshing

Does anyone know how to turn off tool tips that have no
choice but to run off the side of the userform?  It's
pretty messy when the user runs the mouse over necessary
help tooltips, but then the tips keep piling up on top of
one another in the non-form gray area to the right.  There
is no way to shorten the tips so that they stay on the
userform (wherein they nicely disappear once the mouse is
no longer setting them off), since they are on the right-
hand edge of the form.  Thanks.

hi

make sure that screenupdating is enabled before you show the userform:
(application.screenupdating=true)

greetings, pieter.

Thanks Pieter.  I did have screen updating turned off too
soon.  Sometimes someone needs to state the obvious for me
to see the error in my code!  Thanks again.
