Nadya,

Create a new class based on TextBox, for example DTTTextBox (DynamicToolTipTextBox) and create an access method for the ToolTip property, then use this new class in your grid, instead of the regular TextBox, and this does the trick

Your ToolTipText_Access method should look like this:

DEFINE CLASS dtttextbox AS textbox


	Height = 23
	Width = 100
	*-- XML Metadata for customizable properties
	_memberdata = ""
	Name = "dtttextbox"


	PROCEDURE tooltiptext_access
		RETURN Iif(Empty(THIS.ControlSource), this.ToolTipText, Alltrim(Transform(Evaluate(THIS.ControlSource))))
	ENDPROC


ENDDEFINE
