TDBNavigator.Hints Property

Provides a way to customize the Help Hints for the buttons on the database navigator.

Pascal
property Hints: TStrings;
C++
__property TStrings Hints;

Use the Hints property to supply Help Hints of your choosing for the individual navigator buttons. Each button has a default Help Hint. Hints allow the values of any or all of these default Help Hints to be replaced by customized hints.  

Hints is a string list. Each hint is a string. The first string in the string list becomes the Help Hint for the first button on the navigator (the First button). The seventh hint becomes the Help Hint for the seventh button (the Edit button).  

When specifying Hints at runtime, enter an empty string for any Help Hint that should keep the default value. Simply leave the line blank when using the string list property editor of the Object Inspector for the Hints property. 

To have the Help Hints appear at runtime, set the ShowHint property to true.
