A method in a data processing system for attaching an informational dialog to a program. The program is morphed to extend an existing interface to the program to become a dippable program. A dip is created, wherein the dip modifies runtime behavior of the existing interface of the dippable program to include an informational dialog. The dip is added to the dippable program, wherein the informational dialog is attached to the dippable program. The dialog is displayed just before the dippable program is displayed.
