What is the property to set tool tip text with. I can't seem to find it on
say, a button control.
1) Select a WinForm
2) Open up the Toolbox (Ctrl-Alt-X)
3) Select Windows Forms - about half way down you will find ToolTip
4) Double-click it to add it to your WinForm - rename it if you want...
5) Now, each of your WinForms GUI objects (Button, TextBox etc) should have
an additional property called ToolTip on toolTip1 (or whatever you renamed
it to).
6) Set the ToolTip text you want to display - N.B. you only need one of
these controls per WinForm - you don't need one per GUI object.
