Vb thunder Cooltips don't display on Win 95 machine
I haven't used CoolTips, but assuming it exposes the standard tooltip
functionality of Windows, different versions of Windows (with different
versions of IE) have different capabilities
This link describes the capabilities and the version of the common control
library required for those capabilities
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shel...
tform/CommCtls/ToolTip/UsingTooltips.asp
And this link lists the different versions of IE required to get those
control versions:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shel...
tform/Shell/Versions.asp
A standard Win95 doesn't support a lot of the capabilities of tooltips, so
installing/upgrading IE may help
