Can we place a tooltip on the actual vb6 form

is there a way to place a tooltip on the actual form itself? that is, if the user hovers the mouse where there are no controls (button, labels, textbox, etc.) a tooltip would display.

Wouldn't that cover the whole form? (we won't be able to work with the other controls and also it will be  displayed)

Worked!!! Just placed to go back!

Thanx!
Labels are "light" controls and they won't get in the way of the other controls. Try this little demo.
