Property String Status_Help
| Read Access: | Get Status_Help [Item#] to StringVariable |
| Write Access: | Set Status_Help [Item#] to StringVariable/Value |
This is the status-bar help text for the object. This determines the status text that will be displayed when this object takes the focus. Normally the setting of this property is the only step required to produce status-help for this object. With single item objects the text is the only information passed with this message. This message is augmented in multi-item objects to require both an item number and status-text. Normally, you will set and not get this property.
Set Status_Help to "Please enter your User ID" // single-item status
Set Status_Help 3 to "Please enter your User ID" // multi-item status
If the local status help value is blank and the object's use_parent_status_help property is true, the parent object's status_help value will be returned (which, in turn, may return its parent's status_help value).
