>If I have a form with some controls with tooltips and place a timer on the form as well the tooltips still work for me. Can you provide more info on the problem? Whats the time interval on the timer and is it perhaps always busy doing something?

It is pretty short - 13/1000 of a second. (Interval=13)

Are you using one those form title bar "hider" routines?

I naver had a problems with slow - 10 sec (interval=1000) polling actuators - this was my first foray into something more "brisk"!
