Hi raj, My suggestion is you may add a mouse hover event on that button.When move over the button then fire event to show up what you want to display. example,
public ToolTip tooltip=new ToolTip(); public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); button1.MouseHover += new EventHandler(showTooltips); } private void showTooltips(object sender, EventArgs e) { tooltip.ShowAlways = true; // Set up the ToolTip text for the Button . tooltip.SetToolTip((Button)sender, "50"); }from the example, when you click on button,it will display '50' Hope this help you. regard cocoonmodified on Wednesday, April 16, 2008 4:40 AM

well i dont want the tooltip to be displayed on click of the button.It should get displayed when the mouse pointer is idle over it for some time.
His code does just that.
