The only change I made to your older version was to install a ShowFancyTips property in the form to control display of the tips, a menu item to control the type of fancytooltip displayed and turn it off and on, and a few lines of code to suppress display if the objecunderthemouse is also the active control. I also moved the display closer to the top or bottom of the objectunderthemouse so it would not interfere with reading the value of the control.

Specifically where a textbox is displaying numeric data, the timer seems to switch the display from its actual value to zero then back again. This only occurs if the numeric value is selected. I have not yet tracked down why this is so.

It works fine with forms, but not on toolbars. Is it possible though?
