    Hi


    This is a toughie. If you really want to do this, then you're going to have to get deep into subclassing and the WinAPI. Basically a window (control) has an associated tool-tip window which can get created either when the window is created, or on-the-fly. You need to subclass the ToolTip window, then intercept the paint messages for that tool-tip and implement your own painting.
