Re: Forms 5.0 Menu Item and Hint

I have the same problem, although I have not solved it (swamped with so many other issues) I did find that if I move the cursor off the icon immediately after clicking it, then the number of records saved message will stay.
I know this is not solution, but it may suffice as temporary fix.
