Four hours later and I think I've got it. It's a bit of a kludge, but it
works. Click on the button to change the tip:
use Win32::GUI;
my $mw = new Win32::GUI::Window(
-name => "mw",
-text => "Tooltip Test",
-size => [ 200, 100 ],
-pos => [ 100, 100 ],
);
$mw->AddButton(
-name => "btTest",
-text => "Tooltip Test",
-size => [ 80, 20 ],
-pos => [ 40, 20 ],
-tip => "Initial Tooltip",
);
$mw->Show();
Win32::GUI::Dialog();
sub btTest_Click {
Win32::GUI::Tooltip::UpdateTipText($mw->{-tooltip},
$mw->btTest, "Updated Tooltip");
}

Glenn_1,
Yes, that works OK, but how do you change it once the program is running?
There is an entire package for this (Win32::GUI::Tooltip), but that is what
I can't get to work.

Not sure exactly what you are trying to do, or what isn't working.
I just add
-tip => "tooltip text",
into my Buttons and such, and it just seems to work...
