I am using CBuilder from Borland and am using a TRichEdit control to display help when the user holds their mouse over a position on the screen. All of that works fine. However, I want the TRichEdit control to look like a standard Windows hint when it's displayed i.e. pale yellow backbround rectangle with a black border. Using CBuilder, there is no way to directly create that style using properties. The closest I can get is a pale yellow box with a 3D border or a pale yellow box with no border. I don't want that. If I use the Windows GDI calls to change the border, the control will no longer position itself properly where the mouse is located and appears at random locations on the screen. To fulfill this project, I want a simple one form application that displays a TRichEdit control named RichEdit1 containing "Hello, world!", pale yellow background and a black border. As the user moves the mouse around the main form, RickEdit1 will move as well. If the mouse coordinates are (200, 200), RichEdit1->Top = 200 and RichEdit1->Left = 200. The attached sample project illustrates the desired visual effect and what we currently have. Thanks!!! ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased. ## Platform Windows NT / 2000 / XP
