setting tag info for datagridviewrows

I am trying to set the tag info for each row in my datagridview.  The problem is that when I place my mouse over the row no tag appears.  Even if I don't try and set the tag value the tag still doesn't appear when I place my mouse over it.  What am I doing wrong?  Here is my code.

        For Each row In Me.DataGridView1.Rows
             row.tag="some info"
        Next

Are you trying to display a tool tip for each row?  If so, you need to use a ToolTip extender provider to allow you to display tool tip text.

The .Tag property is a generic property for storing information.

I am trying to display extra data about the record in the datagridview.  So yes I guess I am trying to display a tool tip.
