I've used the TOOLBARX classes on the MSDN example titled "TOOLTIPS:Adds Tooltips to MFX 2.X
Applications". It worked well for me.

Yes, it is possible to add tooltips in VC 1.51. There is a library,
source code included that has been provided by Ken Walters, Tom Serface,
Bob Cozzi. I found the zip file in the book Visual C++ Power Toolkit by
Richard Leinecker and Jamie Nye although it is probably available in
other places. This code should give you everything you need.
Hope this helps,

There is a public domain package produced by Mr. Todd Osborne
(Toddos@aol.com).

I have found a sample of tooltip implementation in MSDN
"Sample Code\Technical Article Samples\C++ Samples\TOOLTIPS"
It is a SCRIBBLE extension to handle tooltips on toolbars
and even on added control in toolbar.
Good luck

Take a look at the article entitled 'Extending MFC's Toolbars' by David Rud=
e=20
on the MSDN CD. It describes how to add tooltips to the CToolBar class.
-----From: "Kim, In-Dae"
Please, search keyword "TOOLBARX" in MSDN CD.
The subject's title is "TOOLTIPS: Adds ToolTips to MFC 2.x Applications".

Look at the technical article "Extending MFC's Toolbars" on the MSDN. This
shows how to add tooltips to the MFC CToolBar.

There is a good tooltip sample on the developer network CD. It works very
well and is easy to implement. Look for TOOLTIP. If you don't have MSDNCD I
would be happy to send it to you, as long as I'm not breaking any agreements
with MS.

Hi,
I have a ToolTipb class with examples that is easy to implement. A few
changes to mainframe.cpp and tooltips appear, using the descriptions
from the corresponding menu items. I no longer know where I downloaded
it from, I've had it a long time, but it is public domain, freely
redistributable and has the e-mail address of the author. I would be
happy to send you the self extracting file (96Kb) as an e-mail
attachment, or upload it for everyone. If only I could remember where
to upload stuff to....

Here is a library that I used. I like it a lot more than
the example one from the Developer's Net.
I forget where I got the file from but you can always try
to search CI$ for TTIPS2.ZIP.
It is a class called CToolTipBar.
Here is a portion of the readme file:

I (and a couple of others) wrote a class that is a replacement (supplement) to
the CToolBar class in MFC 1.52. It is called CToolTipBar. You can get it on
CIS in the MSMFC forum. It is called TTIPS3.ZIP. Hope this helps you out.

Microsoft has posted tooltip support for VC1.52. The question is (as
usual)... Now where did I see that? :) It seems like it was called
tooltip.zip, and it was either on ftp.microsoft.com, or in MSMFC on
CompuServe. Or was it MSDN? Anyway, I'm sure a simple KB search on tooltip
will dislodge it from its hiding place.
It's a fairly transparent impelementation, essentially overriding CToolbar.
Good luck!
