Well, not sure what do you mean exactly.

Even standard Calendar tooltips are multiline when it is necessary.

Moreover, you can use custom tooltips and make them in any way you'd like -- see Tooltips type in VB sample Option dialog and a corresponding code.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply,

What I am trying to say is that if I use the "CalendarControl1_MouseMove" for custom tooltips behavior and insert a carriage return - linefeed the tooltip displays as a single line of text.

Private Sub CalendarControl1_MouseMove(ByVal Button As Integer, ByVal Shift As Integer, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long)
    Dim HitTest As CalendarHitTestInfo
    Set HitTest = CalendarControl1.ActiveView.HitTest

    If (Not HitTest.ViewEvent Is Nothing) Then
        CalendarControl1.ControlTipText = "[" & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Id & "] " & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject & vbCrLf & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Body"
    Else
        CalendarControl1.ControlTipText = ""
    End If
End Sub

Thanks

ControlTipText is a standard VB property...

See following links:

Sorry, after reading my post I notice that there was not much information. What happens is that when I use "CalendarControl1_MouseMove" and one of the links above to create a standard VB multi line tooltips property only a single line appears on nothing at all.

Sorry and thanks for any help

Note that there are no standard VB multiline tooltips. All the links above just shows examples of workarounds on this problem.
