ToolTipText Question

Hmmm.. Guys... Is there a way I can make the tooltip have a line feed instead of getting something like this:

Hello || My name is Tec-Nico

Intead I want it to appear like:

Hello
My name is Tec-Nico

So... Is there a way to do this?

:) Thanks in advance

Not in traditional way (Command1.ToolTipText = "hello" & vbNewLine & "world"), but you can create a multiline textbox (or label but with label set borderstyle to fixed single, autosize to true), set it's appearance to flat and backcolor to &H80000018& (tooltip color) and make it act as a tooltiptext. Problem with label is it isn't an object so objects (commandbutton, textbox, etc) will be ontop of the label. There are ways around this problem of course.

That's C. Here's VB way :

I know what you mean, Dmitri K... I have done it before, but I just wanted to know if it could be done with the normal Tooltip... Yet, I am going to download the control provided by James, Well, well, well... Thanks James :)

James, Did you know every title you post is "Well?" Just something I noticed.
