    The system already shows the HelpText of the field in the status bar, if the user selects a field / control.

    So it should already work as you described. And there is no way to make it work any other way, the behavior is controlled by the kernel.

    As mentioned above, it shows the help text that is defined on the form control. If nothing is defined, it shows the help text of the underlying table field. If nothing is defined, it shows the help text of the underlying data type (EDT / enum).

    You can change these help texts (on form control, table field and data type) if you want to impact what's shown in the status bar.

    Good morning Dr. Ludwig Reinhard ,
    I think you got my question that is very simple" when i click on any checkbox or button box it should show full detail or information about that. Especially in the setup menu whenever, you change the setup or clicking any button it shows information regarding that. Please check the image for clear my question.

    Best Regards,

    Shabir Ahmad

    Hi Shabir,

    The information in the status bar is controlled by HelpText property. It can be set up on EDT, Field, or Control (control has the highest priority).

    If you want to change it, you need to make new label (or modify existing, but do not change standard ones) and put it to help text property.

    Good Morning Shabir Ahmad,

    If I understand your issue correctly then you simply want to show a different text compared to what MS delivers with the standard application.

    In other words, you just want to show a different 'label'.

    Is my understanding correct?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
