Syntax

        
          boolVal = object.DisplayTooltips
      
        
          object.DisplayTooltips = boolVal

boolVal

Required Boolean; True if ToolTips are shown; False if they are not.

object

Required. An expression that returns a UIObject object.

Remarks

It doesn't matter which UIObject object you use when getting or setting this property. The property affects the entire application, and always affects the appearance of ToolTips in the current visible set of toolbars.

Beginning with Microsoft Visio 2002, this setting corresponds to the Show ScreenTips on toolbars setting on the Options tab in the Customize dialog box (on the Tools menu, click Customize), and is shared between Visio 2002 and all Microsoft Office XP applications.
