    I am running Windows XP and I am trying to modify an xml document so that when the operator puts his/her mouse over the file, the tooltip displays additional information. The tooltip displays the Type, Date Modified, and Size. I am using C++ in Visual Studio 2003 .NET environment along with MFC and COM. AeJai

      And you are programming an application to make / edit the xml? Or just want to change windows behaviour?

        If you want to write a tooltip handler for xml types, you can't do better than go through Michael Dunn's SUPERB shell programming tutorials: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Writing Shell Extensions - Part I[^] to The Complete Idiot's Guide to Writing Shell Extensions - Part IX[^] Part II should be the one you want.
