Hello forum - Novice user (be gentle) :)

I have attached a file that shows what I am trying to achieve.

I want to be able to click on a button so this then displays the popup help file that describes the condition of the car.

Thanks in advance.

.. theres two ways of doing this... either a) you use a custom dialog box... ugly but it does the job... just attach a script that calls up a custom dialog box and display a calculation as your message...

:) and i wouldnt necessarily recommend this seeing as your a windows user (unless your app doesnt run full window)... you can call up a new window through a script... just open new window and go to layout..

c) if you didnt mean an internal help file... then post again...

Hope the fun rough answer helped...

You can use a popup menu for this. You can also use the go to hidden field trick. See attached.
