pTips is an OLE DLL that allows you to add tool tips to almost any 
control of a 32-bit Visual Basic program. While several new controls 
have tool tip support built in, most of the older controls do not. 
For example the Command Button, Labels, and Check Boxes do not offer 
tool tips. pTips allows you to add tool tips to these controls and 
many others. Because pTips uses the Win32 API it cannot be used for 
16bit applications. It also is a VB OLE DLL so it requires all of 
the standard VB runtime files.

The files pTips.Doc and pTipsRef.Doc contain more information about 
this DLL. If you do not have word these files can be viewed with 
either the Microsoft Word View (which is free from Microsoft) or with 
WordPad (although you lose some of the formatting).
