Solved (sorta): How to Turn Off MAS90 Extended Item Description Pop-Ups

February 27, 2011 by Wayne Schulz

My good friend Mark Kotyla of Giving Tree Consulting has just asked (and answered) a great question over on the Ask 90Minds site (a site dedicated to the free exchange of MAS90 and MAS200 technical questions).

His question:

When scrolling through Item Maintenance or Item Inquiry records an item description pop-up is displayed for any item descriptions longer than the 30 default character limit. Is there a way to turn these pop-ups off?

I’ve had this question several times from users who find that as they are entering data into MAS 90 or MAS 200 that the pop-up window for Inventory extended item descriptions displays as their cursor passes through the field.

Mark has hit upon this simple – yet effective – cure:

Can’t turn them off, but you can change the tab settings on that screen to omit the description… Which will skip that field and therefore not display the pop-up window.
