Anynone know of a way to take a class derived from a CStatic and have it add
a tooltip? I have tried the EnableToolTip(TRUE) and look for several messages
but just can't get it to happen.... Anyideas?

You need to handle the TTN_NEEDTEXT notification message.

I have done this. I am not sure why the message isn't getting to the control.
Does this HAVE to be done on the dialog that is hosting the control?

You can do it either way, the most common way and the easiest way is to do
it through the parent dialog
But here is how you would do it through the control itself
You need to take over OnToolHitTest and do something like this.

INT_PTR CMyStatic::OnToolHitTest(CPoint point, TOOLINFO* pTI) const
{
pTI->hwnd = m_hWnd;
pTI->uId = (UINT)m_hWnd;
pTI->uFlags |= TTF_IDISHWND;
pTI->lpszText = LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK;
return GetDlgCtrlID();
}

This will allow your control to receive TTN_NEEDTEXT

Follow this link and see article. Maybe this will help you.

You will most likely have to modify a code to meet your needs.
