tooltip not showing up in browse mode

[Sibilla]

I am a relatively new Filemaker user. I have pro 8 advanced and am working on Mac OS X. I am trying to add tooltips, and am able to do so in Layout mode, but after I save and switch to Browse mode, the tooltips do not show up when I run the cursor over the field. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you.

What are your tooltips defined as? Do they work as a simple text string, like "test"?

If you have defined a tooltip and then placed another object (visible or invisible...doesn't matter) over it or even if it is overlapping, the tooltip will not display.

I have the same problem when I run the application on my system at home. The same app will display the tooltips on my system at work. I have uninstalled & reinstalled FM to no avail. I'm using a Dell XPS-410 with dual core P4, 2MB RAM.
