Default Adding ToolTip to a button

I am trying to add a tool tip to a command button.

Set SandP = ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(400, 15, 107.75, 47.25)
SandP.OnAction = "SandP_Click"
SandP.Caption = "Sort and Print"
SandP.ControlTipText = "Blah Blah Blah"

This does not seem to work. Any thoughts?

Thank you

SS

SS,

Control Toolbox controls do not support tooltips, but they can be achieved
with a bit of tweaking.

If you want to mail me directly, I can send you a sample of the technique.
