Remarks
You can use this and the MouseEnter event to create rollover and mouseover behaviors as in DHTML.
A control receives a MouseLeave event when the user moves the mouse out of the control from a mouse position that was previously inside the control. In the case of overlapping or intersecting controls, the topmost control in the z-order receives the event.
A MouseLeave event is passed to objects on forms or toolbars. Forms and toolbars themselves do not receive this event.
