ControlTipText property - am I missing something obvious here?

[Joel Wiseheart]

I have an Access 97 form. Several labels have control
tips. Some display, some don't.

The only difference I noticed is that the ones that don't
display are "child" labels of their associated text box.
Would this prevent the control tip text from displaying?

If not, is there any other reason why it's not displaying?

Attached labels don't quite exist by themselves, e.g. if you
click on the label, the parent control receives the focus.
If you set the Control Tip text for the control that the
label is attached to, it will be displayed when the mouse is
over either the control or over its attached label.
