Is it possible to hide the yellow box that appears when you scroll over any object in the form? This box contains the item name or caption.

That one can be cleared in the Accessibility tab (press Shift-F6).  There is an option "Screen Reader Precedence", set it to None.

Hi,

Under Tools ... Options ... Workspace, there is an option "Display Object Name Tool Tips While Pointing".

Try clearing that.

That worked in Design View, but when I tried Preview PDF I still had the yellow boxes with the captions/names in them when I scrolled over a radio button, drop-down list, or checkbox.
