VB6 - Customizable Balloon Tooltips for all controls (supports Unicode)

This is another spin on "Customizable Balloon Tooltips" for your controls (mainly inspired from Elroy's example in this thread). All relevant code for the tooltips is encapsulated in the "cTT" class which is predeclared for ease of use. This class keeps track of all added tooltips and they are displayed automatically when the user hovers the mouse over a control that has a balloon tooltip attached.

• All tooltips are fully customizable as seen in the screenshot below.
• You can toggle enabling or disabling the display of tooltips either for specified controls or for all at once.
• Once created, a tooltip can be modified later without creating a new one
• The class supports both regular controls (those with a "hWnd" property) as well as windowless controls ("Label" for example)
