string A string associated with an object in the Applies To list. that appears in a small rectangle below the object when the user's cursor hovers over the object at run time for about one second.
Remarks
If you use only an image to label an object, you can use this property to explain each object with a few words.
At design time you can set the ToolTipText property string in the control's properties dialog box.
