	Normally one just adds the tooltip to the MFC resource file where the ID of the tooltip is the same as the control ID. But you can also implement OnToolHitTest and set any tip you choose and the method you obtain the tip text is up to you. For instance, we have some controls that the tip changes depending on the context so a single text string in the resource is not sufficient. After we determine the control that is hit, we simply call CXTPToolTipContext::FillInToolInfo( pTI, pTI->hwnd, rect, pTI->uId, strTipDescription, strTipTitle, strTipDescription ); The method is static and the TOOLINFO (pTI param above) passed into OnToolHitTest has all the info CJ needs to set the text on the appropriate CJ tooltip context object. FillInToolInfo is quite useful and makes it very easy to set your data. Make sure you don't set the LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK when you call FillInToolInfo.
