Is there an event which I can fire off which tells me when I am over the data table AND which row/column the mouse is over.
If so could some nice person give me an example ..
Thanks

DSig,
You have to roll this one out yourself using WINMSG and capturing the WM_SETCURSOR WinAPI message. Here is a post that shows how we use both of the above to trap right-clicks so we can have context menus for edittables. This is essentially the same information in our Creating a Custom Event white paper.
You will have to add more logic, however, to do the work of telling you what cell in the edittable you are floating over. Both SRP and Sprezz have a utility which does this. We have sold this to some of our developer customers (by itself and as a feature of FrameWorks) so we need to have you contact us if you are interested in more information. I don't recall if Sprezz markets their utility or not.

That would be cool.

Why wait? This is one purposes of the EventDesigner. This is essentially what we have already done. The aforementioned white paper discusses how to do this.

yes .. it can be done which is one of the great things about MV systems and specifically OI. You can do most things
The reason to request it as part of the system then it will hopefully be supported by the system.
AND everyone has access to the same process. They don't have to figure out the bits of event designer (i've misplaced the docs) etc. Let's see create an item then create some code that checks for stuff and calls some other code .. is that right .. yeah .. ok ..
I think Tim and I are in pretty much agreement here .. that OI should/will need to do most everything that the other tools can do.

Exactly, Sig.
I can start VB or .Net and have a MouseOver and bubble help without having to worry about bits, bobs and bytes or have I run Declare_Fcns (that's probably wrong but that's the whole point!!!).
Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate the leaps forward that the current RevSoft development team are taking and this was just an "off the cuff" desire. But I get paid to develop applications for my employer and not work out how to code a MouseOver event.
