My bad. The feature is new to Net 2.0. I wouldn't know how to achieve the
same with 1.1.

Sorry,

GAZ

In 1.1 you will need to inherit it and set the LVS_EX_INFOTIP extended
style. You didn't say what language you're using but here is VB code for it:

Public Class ListViewEx
   Inherits ListView

   Private Const LVS_EX_INFOTIP As Integer = &H400
   Private Const LVM_FIRST As Integer = &H1000
   Private Const LVM_SETEXTENDEDLISTVIEWSTYLE As Integer = LVM_FIRST + 54
   Private Declare Auto Function SendMessage Lib "User32.dll" (ByVal hwnd
As IntPtr, ByVal msg As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, ByVal lParam As
Integer) As Integer

   Protected Overrides Sub OnCreateControl()
       MyBase.OnCreateControl()
       SendMessage(Me.Handle, LVM_SETEXTENDEDLISTVIEWSTYLE, LVS_EX_INFOTIP,
LVS_EX_INFOTIP)
   End Sub
End Class
