I'd like to change the background color of my tool tips windows. Anybody
got any idea how to go about doing that?
I scanned the books online and msdn/July96, but I didn't see anything about
it...

Tootip text and background colors are set at system level using SetSysColor:
SetSysColor(COLOR_INFOBK);
SetSysColor(COLOR_INFOTEXT);
They should not be changed by programs. Changing the color would
change tooltips colors for all programs. If you want different colors,
you can always implement your own windows that behave like tooltips.

Hi it is me again, You may want to check out 'Custom Draw' a new feature
from Microsoft, enabling Custom drawing (stage based control drawing, more
advanced than Owner draw) of various controls including: ListCtrl
TreeCtrl, ToolTip, Header Ctrl, TrackBar, ToolBar and Coolbar (Ie3.0
toolbars) You'll need ComCtl32.h and ComCtl32.lib from ActiveX SDK and
ComCtl32.DLL from IE3.0. These Control enhancements are in beta stage and
are being developed for Nashville. Check out October MSJ.
