Thanks for the pointer, I too was thinking on the same line. To capture region of disabled object and set required tooltip for parent, let me give a shot at it.:) Thanks again! Nilesh

Was wondering if there was any workaround, similar problem is seen with MFC controls as well but there you have the pretranslatemessage which allows you to handle it by sending explict messages to tooltip controler. Is it possible to implement something similar here too:)

but again custom controls would also face the same problem! won't they?

Thanks! But my application is having too many controls, and having duplicate control underneath each really blots it up :( - Nilesh

Hi! Could any one suggest me how I can display tooltips for a disabled controls! It was fairly easy to implement the same in MFC but em not able to find a solution in C# :( Thanks in advance!

Replace above code with *(( int __RPC_FAR * )_StubMsg->Buffer) = *nCount; _StubMsg->Buffer++;
