Is it possible to display multiline tooltip with MFC?
We need to add help when the mouse is over controls of all dialog box
of our project. It's not possible to use winhelp because the tooltip must
go without clicking!

The Windows common tooltip control is implemented by Windows, not
by MFC. If you want to know if the windows common tooltip control
can display multiline tips, the answer is: no, it can't.
If you want to know if it is possible to implement your own tooltips
with MFC that can display multiline tips, the answer is: yes, you can.

This is usually caused by the developer not writing code to reflect all
necessary messages to the tooltip control. See the "tooltip controls"
overview in the Win32 SDK for example code that shows how to hook messages
sent to controls _before_ the controls get them and swallow them before
the dialog's window procedure gets them.

A piece of good news though - the Windows common tooltip control will
have this functionality in the IE 4.0 update...actually, it has this
feature already if you have installed IE 3.0, but the current version
of this DLL is not redistributable.
Multi-line functionality is added to this new version through the use
of custom draw, a new feature on many of the common controls. Check out
the October MSJ for details.

This DLL hasn't shipped: it's in beta. Until iti s actually released,
speculation about its features is really just that: speculation.
