Dear Sir./Madam.,

Are there any examples that show how to add complex tooltip (including icons and texts, somewhat like helpnote) to a report grid header?

Thanks!

There is a sample called HelpNotes that shows how to implement a tooltip-like window based on the rich edit control. The pop-up rich edit control with rich text and in-place OLE objects (bitmaps in this sample) is used instead of toolbar/menu tips. You can do the same with grid windows. There is also a CExtGridWnd::OnAdvancedPopupMenuTipWndDisplay() method is called each time the default CExtPopupMenuTipWnd tooltip window is about to be displayed. So you can override it and display any other tooltip-like window instead including the pop-up window implemented in the HelpNotes.
