I'm not sure what you mean by that, by: combobox doesn't support tool tips.
 A tool tip control is independent of the control you use it with.  Tool
tips support any control.

With a list-view or a tree-view, those 2 controls create and manage their
own tool tip.  They then provide a way for the programmer to access the
tool tip they created.  I haven't looked, but I'm sure you're right that a
combo box does not supply a similar feature.  That just means you need to
create and manage your own tool tip.

I believe the ToolTip class is complete, so there should be no reason why
you can not create and manage your own tool tip for a combo box.

In one of the examples for tool tips, I created and managed my own tool tip
completely independent of the list-view.  That is, it does not use the
list-view's tool tip.  One of the intents their was to sure that it is
possible to do any thing you want with a tool tip.  Just takes some work.
