ToolTips in Listview

[Tass]

Do you need an api?

No, tooltips are implemented by programming on the bare metal (writing directly to graphical memory).  Microsoft never bothered to give us an API for that one, so we just scrawl directly on your screen.

You're using VB: ListItems have a property called ToolTipText.  Set it.  Also try the Object Browser, it's handy.

For basic simple line tooltips there is a .ListItem property for them.

Google to use multi-line tooltips.

Anyone know of a tut that can show me how to do it for every item in the listview?

I don't know about a tut, but this is how I would do it:

Set the HoverSelect property to true

Enable Listview_Mousemove, and have the tooltip change accordingly
