CreateHandle in a Cell of a Grid

[PheCotl]

Hi,

i'm trying to add or create a handle for a cell. The Grid containing the cell has a handle, but not the cell itself.
I need that handle, cause i want a Tooltip to be displayed when the cursor is over the cell, to show all the information of the cell.

The problem is, that all tooltips are displayed when the cursor is over the grid.

I tried to make a class inheriting the cell and than adding a CreateHanlde(), but this didn't work, cause it says CreateHandle is protected.

Can anyone give me a hint, how to add a handle to the cells?

Thanks in advance

Greetings Florian

A datagridcell is a structure and can have a handle assigned, so therefore it does make it quite difficult to display a tooltip for. It can definately be done row-by-row but i've never tried it for a cell. Here's a link to an MSDN article on how to customise the datagrid control. It may be of help......
