Questions about embedded winControl

[A Lonely Programmer]

Hi group,

i have 2 questions i hope somebody can answer about a wincontrol being
hosted in ie.

1. Is it possible to create a pop up that prompts for a user name and
password when a button on my control is clicked?

2. Why are there no tooltips for controls in a wincontrol library project?
is there a way to get this functionality? through an implements call or
inheritance maybe?

thanks

Steve

yes. make a form and call it ofrmlogin then declare an instance of it in the
control.

public withevents loginform as new ofrmlogin

....code...
....more code..

public sub button_onclick() handles btn1.click

loginform.showmodal() 'intellisense spells it right, dont worry =)

end sub
