Description

Use onMouseMove to perform actions when the user moves the mouse over an object. A control’s onMouseMove fires when the mouse moves over that control. The form’s onMouseMove fires when the mouse moves over an area of the form where there is no control.

The <col expN> and <row expN> parameters contain values that are relative to the object that fired the event. For example, the upper left corner of a button is always row 0, column 0, even if that button is in the bottom corner of the form.
