First it is in RosAsm style.
Sorry I am addicted to its simplicity of use.
The Proc is called from Dialog initiation

[Counter:D$ 0]
   
; Call for the first ToolTip
 Call SetTTip D$hdlg,        ; H Dialog Handle of Dialog or Window
                    1,          ; Tool tip number ID
                    1,          ; Normal (not balloon 2 is balloon type)
                    b_calculate,; Control ID number
                    1           ; Text Pointer to Ressource or pointer to a String
 
;To show success it returns with the  HANDLE of the created Tool tip
[ToolTipsHandles: 0 #16]      ; Space for 16 handles
[TOOLINFOS: 0 #(48*16)]       ; Space for 16 Structures

[Mode1   &TTS_NOPREFIX + &TTS_ALWAYSTIP] ; declaration of  values
[Mode2   Mode1 + &TTS_BALLOON]
[uFlags  &TTF_SUBCLASS + &TTF_IDISHWND]

Sorry I saw a little thin missing
and I cannopt find < EDIT >
(being new here)

[HandlesArray: 0 #16]
the place holder for the handles.

An other thing:
I assumed that the Handle for the Instance is called hInstance
to allow other names an extra parameter shoud be passed to the proc
declaring it as @hInstance
and changing all $ to @ $=Global @ = Stack local for hInstance(not many)

Sorry for the inconveniance.

I am in the editing buisness !!!
; to toggle vision of tool tip
Proc TTToggle:

Arguments @ID,
@ONOFF ;0,1 ON OFF
uses ebx


mov ebx HandlesArray
mov eax D@ID
dec eax
shl eax 2
add ebx eax
mov eax D@ONOFF
;mov edx D$ebx
mov ebx D$ebx
Call 'USER32.SendMessageA' ebx,
&TTM_ACTIVATE,
eax, ; True/False
0

EndP
