How set app's taskbar button tooltip?

How do you set the tooltip for the applications taskbar button?

I am not sure if I have the terminology correct. This is the button that
appears at the bottom of the screen when the application is running.
For example, when I run Word and hover my mouse over the Word button it
displays "Microsoft Word - My Document".

Thanks in advance for any tips,

is your application an MDI? if so then it will return whatever is set in
that MDI parent as the text.

No it is not MDI. It looks like the toolTip displays the main forms
text property when my application is visible.

However, when my app is minimized, the toolTip no longer displays?
