I love it... simple is better "who needs behaviors if you don't need
behaviors" (hehe, though I still would like to know why it did not work...)
Right... mousewithin... i had my field blink 35 times at one point...
I'll use this... only thing was I was putting all the tips in custom
props for hte card rather than in individual controls. But I like your
way too. Makes the object portable.
