Form field help text

Do I understand correctly that the help text in a form field only shows if you select F1, and will not automatically show when you hover over or begin to type in the text box?  Is there a work around for that?

Answer

There are two styles of help that can be associated with FormFields. 

  • Text that appears automatically on the status bar when the selection is in the FormField
  • Text that appears when you press F1
Hope this helps,
