   Tooltips intermittently fail to display in non-themed calendar.

test 1
1. Open a calendar. 
2. Do not apply a 2007 theme.
3. Create an event whose bounding rectangle encompasses all of the contents.
4. Tooltip will not display (custom or standard).

test 2
1. Open a calendar. 

2. Do not apply a 2007 theme.

3. Create an event whose bounding rectangle does not encompass all of the 
contents.
4. Tooltip will display (custom or standard).

test 3

1. Open a calendar. 

2. Do not apply a 2007 theme.

3. Create an event with a bounding rectangle of any size.
4. Resize the bounding rectangle.

5. Tooltip will display (custom or standard) .. but only the first time.

2007 theme works properly. Tooltip displays consistently regardless of event rectangle size. Regardless of whether the bounding rectangle is resized or not.

	The problem comes from a check for the tool tip custom format. This quick fix took care or it. I do not use the customformat4tooltip so whatever relies on that may be effected. In method: void CXTPCalendarViewEvent::OnMouseMove(UINT nFlags, CPoint point) Change this: BOOL bForceTooltip = !GetCalendarControl()->m_sCustomFormat4Tooltip.IsEmpty(); to this: BOOL bForceTooltip = TRUE;
