A string that is the target help text.

Remarks

Use the FormField.HelpText property to specify the help text shown when pressing F1.

Otherwise, the FormField.StatusText value is not displayed when opening it in another word processing tool.

The AutoText contents are not embedded to the document. When the document with the form field whose StatusText property is set to FormFieldTextType.Auto is opened on another machine, the FormField.StatusText value is not displayed as well.

Note

The RibbonStatusBar cannot display the form field help text.
