Basically so that when I hover over a word it will be underlined then not
underlined when you take the cursor of the wrod.

Hi,

do you mean how to make the lable get the similiar look and feel like a
hyper link control.
As far as I know, It's not easy to create this effect in VB6, because there
is no event for mouse leave, the possible workarounds are
1.use a Timer , in Timer Check if the mouse is in the label bound.
2.subclass the label window handle the WM_MOUSEMOVE Message.
If ActiveX control is an option , you may try searching 3rd party ActiveX
controls,
for your convenient, I list some controls here:

Is my suggestions helpful to resolve your problem?
Please feel free to reply this thread, if you still have questions on this
issue.
Thanks!

Robert's question still needs an answer. Where is this text that you want to
have this effect on? is it on a web page, in a msgbox, or what. If a msgbox,
not possible, if a webpage, possible. If something other than a webpage or
msgbox, then it depends on what it is.
