I have used Sam Robbin's tooltip class with a MX2004 grid to wonderful
results. I am doing the auto-truncation of the text inside the grid cells if
needed (adding "..." - even works with resizing the grid), rows / cells can
get their own tooltips, etc.

I'll have to dig it up out of my archive. Its really a sweet resizable
grid/tooltip/truncation system. I remember a little bug where I had to hack
something to make sure all but one of the columns stays at a width I
prefered... so the grid will snap back a little in one of the columns.

But you just want to see a tooltip work with a grid. I found Sam's to be
nice to use and easy to implement. I don't have a url handy, but Google for
it or check out www.pixelconsumption.com <http://www.pixelconsumption.com>
