No, never had that problem. Stopped using them for different reasons.

PS Always used on buttons but just added label with tooltip at design time and it works fine. Must be summit wierd in your prog.

Tooltips in .Net Winforms

Anyone use them? Trying to pop up some text in a tooltip when user's mouse hovers over a label control but the behaviour seems really inconsistent in that the tooltip for the most part doesnt show when the mouse enters the control's client area. Works in about 1 in 10 attempts. Driving me mad! Anyone else had this problem?
