It's very easy with VB .Net

All you have to do is this:
In the designer, drag the ToolTip object from the Toolbox.
It will show up in the components section of the designer.

Now all controls on the form with have a ToolTip on ToolTip1 property in the properties window. You can set it from there.


If you want to set a tooltip for a control at run time, you do the above steps, then use the following code:

ToolTip1.SetToolTip(aControl, "The New Message")
