Hi,

I am trying to implement a small help box similar to the one on time item in
windows...

If you put your mouse over the time display on your windows taksbar and just
wait, you'll see the date "February 1, 2005" text in a small pop-up box.

How do I implement such box in Windows forms?

Thanks,
Victor

Take a look at the ToolTip component available in the Window Forms tab of
the toolbox.
