TabControl and ToolTips

The tool tips on the tabs of a TabPage of a TabControl seem to behave
differently than a normal ToolTip. I am trying to put a long string in
but it keeps getting cut off. The same string works fine if I use a
standard ToolTip Control. But I have to use the TabControl's
implementation because I want it on a hover over the tab. This also
seems to be fixed in VS2005 but I am using VS2003. Is there a work
around or a way to lengthen the ToolTip on a TabPage of a TabControl?

When created, the panels create tooltips which they associate with themselves. When removed, the panels and their tooltips are Disposed. The disposed...

Is anybody aware of other software conflicting with Access and disabling the tool tips. I've had this problem in the past and now have it again after rebuilding my desktop and notebook. Both fail to display tooltips in Access. Windows tooltips display OK. For a given database, the tooltips in Access also display OK on a third machine, which makes me think that some other software that I have installed on the first 2 machines is causing...

I'm trying to display tooltips when the mouse hovers over the header of individual tab pages in a tab control, but the tt only displays when the mouse is over the body of the tab page. Is this by design? What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to display formatted multi-line text in tooltips. It seems that the newline character works fine whereas the 'tab' character is causing problems and can't display properly. More specifically, when I set the caption of a tooltip to something like "Hello" + vbTab + "there", the tooltip display as "Hello" and the rest of the string is truncated. I've searched the web but haven't seen any solution to this. I've seen people...

Hi, Is there a way to make windows tooltips stay up longer than the default 5 seconds using CSS in a web page? I'd prefer to have it stay visible as long as the mouse is over the "whatever." The reason: I've been creating web pages and using various javascripts for the tooltip popups, and they are fine and very "tweakable." But, I'd prefer to just use the "title" and/or the "alt" attribute and somehow alter it so that viewers to my...
