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.
