Label Tooltip not showing when AutoEllipsis=true

I have a label on my form with AutoEllipsis set to true and AutoSize to false. It does show the "..." when the Text is too long for the label length, but not the tooltip? I thought this was standard behaviour? I'm using winforms in .net 2.0. MaximumSize is also set to 0;0 since I read somewhere that that might be the cause. It doesn't work in any of my forms in this application.

Hi nicolas77,

Could you please package the code in a small project in which the issue can be reproduced and email it to me: alala666888@ hotmail.com?
