Once in a while I also find these HaHa moments myself in PB ... and I've been using PB since Oct 1989 - the Alpha 0.9 release! ;-)

I can enter and display tooltips including line breaks if I enter as:

Hi<Ctrl+Enter>
There<Ctrl+Enter>
Everyone!

Some time ago I wrote a function to break tooltip into lines of max 100 chars. It inserted "~r~n" at latest space before the 100th character in "current" line.

Is the MaxWidth property of the TOOLTIP property of the DW active yet?
If so, then use that, else there's no way I know of to control the width of a ToolTip except by controlling the length of your string/tip.

Sybase then would never go back to complete the new feature, instead they would move on to something else.
