Actually this refer to the CanlendarControl.ToolTipText property.  It is language specific too, in VB6 the Calendar inherits this property, in C# it will not.  ToolTipText is a standard control's property, provided by VB framework.

Use methods CalendarControl.EnableToolTips to disable built-in Calendartooltips, then catch MouseMove and using methodCalendarControl.ActiveView.HitTest determine the current active itemswhere cursor is currently placed. Then show some custom tooltip withthis information displayed.

This idea is show in Calendar Visual Basic sample. Please look belowfor an implementation of MouseMove method -- it is pretty simple:
Private Sub CalendarControl_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
  Dim HitTest As CalendarHitTestInfo
  Set HitTest = CalendarControl.ActiveView.HitTest
  
  If (Not HitTest.ViewEvent Is Nothing) Then
    Debug.Print "MouseMove. HitTest = "; HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject
   
    If ToolTips_Mode = 1 Then
      CalendarControl.ToolTipText = "[" & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Id & "] " & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject
    Else
      CalendarControl.ToolTipText = ""
      Me.Refresh
    End If
  Else
    CalendarControl.ToolTipText = ""
    Me.Refresh
  End If
End Sub

Hi All,

I am trying to display a custom tooltip when the mouse hovers an event. I have the code working but in the codejock docs it mentions an undocumented property called TooltipText which is inherited ??

I also checked the generated package file and there is no sign of the property ..

Those that have the codejock calendar control help can see what I am referring to by looking up the method EnableToolTips.

 Any Ideas How I need to reference this ..
