Tough Question

I have a combo box. I would like to show a toolip for each item in the list
when you put your mouse over it. Is this possible?

Thanks,

David

I am not sure about the tooltip, but another idea (more user-friendly in my
opinion) is to use a multicolumn combobox, and use the 2nd column to show
the additional info that you would show in the tooltip for each item. There
are several multicolumn comboboxes with source code on the web.
