I reckon there's a problem with the ToolInfo structure.

I've seen it defined like this in VB so I wonder if using the bank address is actually required.

Private Type TOOLINFO
    lSize As Long
    lFlags As Long
    hwnd As Long
    lId As Long
    lpRect As RECT
    hInstance As Long
    lpStr As String
    lParam As Long
End Type

Are you getting ",,%Ÿ" in debug mode? I get the same text as your picture in non-debug mode.

I will have another decent look at this tonight as my lunch break is now over :(
