Mr. Pearson,
I apologize for my misunderstanding of your original explanation and thank
you for response and help.

The answer to your control tip question is "No, you can't add control
tips to Excel.ToolbarButton objects." The answer to the broader
question of "what should you do?" is "Yes, use Office.CommandBar and
Office.CommandBarControl objects. They support control tips."

Cordially,

what is the code to change the tool tip in this example:
Private Sub AddToolbar()
Dim tbb As Object
On Error Resume Next
Toolbars("Test").Delete
On Error GoTo 0
Set oTB = Toolbars.Add(Name:="Test")
With oTB
.Left = 117
.Top = 186
Set tbb = .ToolbarButtons.Add(Button:=23, Befo=1)
tbb.OnAction = ThisWorkbook.Name + "!custommacro"
.Width = 200
.Visible = True
End With
End Sub
