Tooltips not working for all controls in CFormView derived class

$

I can't get tooltips to show up for the windows I want in my CFormView derived class. I have copied the code from the MSDN entry on EnableToolTips(). But only two windows respond with a tooltip:

CONTROL "Tree1",IDC_TESTPLANS,"SysTreeView32",TVS_HASBUTTONS | TVS_HASLINES | TVS_EDITLABELS | TVS_SHOWSELALWAYS | WS_BORDER | WS_HSCROLL | WS_TABSTOP,1,36,85,91
CONTROL "Tab1",IDC_TABCMD,"SysTabControl32",0x0,101,0,239,181

Other windows do not respond. For these windows my function designed to catch the TTN_NEEDTEXTW and TTN_NEEDTEXTA messages is not called. Windows such as

LISTBOX IDC_TESTPLANNAMES,0,119,48,40,LBS_SORT | LBS_NOINTEGRALHEIGHT | WS_VSCROLL | WS_TABSTOP
PUSHBUTTON "",IDC_BTN_COPY,105,177,24,24,BS_ICON

Why wouldn't the messages be sent for those windows? I'm using the code

ON_NOTIFY_EX_RANGE(TTN_NEEDTEXTW, 0, 0xFFFF, &CCntlrView::OnTtnNeedText)
ON_NOTIFY_EX_RANGE(TTN_NEEDTEXTA, 0, 0xFFFF, &CCntlrView::OnTtnNeedText)

(CCntrlView is the name of my class derived from CFormView.) And as I pointed out, I'm using the code straight from the example given in MSDN for CWnd::EnableToolTips(), with the only difference being that all my controls are created in the rc file as shown above.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary
