hi all I’d like to use a multi-line tooltip in VBA, adapting the subs I found here: [URL]http://www.vb-helper.com/howto_multi_line_tooltip.html[/URL] Unfortunately it’s necessary to know the handles of forms and controls; in VBA the handle of a form is easy to find: Dim hFrm As Long hFrm = FindWindow(vbNullString, Me.Caption) But what about controls? I tried with EnumChildWindows : ... EnumChildWindows hFrm, AddressOf EnumChildProc, ByVal 0& ... Public Function EnumChildProc(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As Long Debug.Print hwnd EnumChildProc = 1 End Function But I have just learnt it’s wrong, since EnumChildWindows expects true windows-controls, while VBA-controls are “windowless controlsâ€; in microsoft.public.vb.winapi Mike D Sutton wrote : â€IIRC none of the controls on a VBA form are 'really' windows at least in the way the OS defines them (and EnumChildWindows() expects them), but are simply drawn onto the parent at runtime. This is the same behaviour as label and image controls exhibit within VB, they're known as windowless controls†Is it possible to retrieve those handles in VBA or is it simply impossible?
